The Sangrur seat was also being seen as a stronghold of Bhagwant Mann, so the party's defeat in this seat was no less than a major setback. Although the aam aadmi party performed strongly across the state in the elections held only a few months ago, the party's performance was even stronger in Malwa where the party won 66 out of 69 seats.
Apart from all this, this seat was also being seen as a stronghold of Bhagwant Mann, so the party's defeat on this seat is not less than a big setback. Although the aam aadmi party performed strongly across the state in the elections held only a few months ago, the party's performance was even stronger in Malwa where the party won 66 out of 69 seats.
Aam Aadmi party had won 9 out of 9 seats falling in Sangrur Lok Sabha. So what changed in these three months that the party had to face defeat in the by-elections? There are many reasons for the anger of the people against the aam aadmi party, during the short tenure of the AAP government, many such incidents happened in punjab which were seen to open the law and order situation in punjab, such as the murder of famous singer Sidhu Moosewala, the killing of Kabaddi players. Incidents like the attack on the Intelligence Headquarters of punjab Police put a question mark on the competence of the government.
Not giving preference to Malwa in the rajya sabha elections also went unnoticed for the voters of these areas. However, the biggest blow to the image of the party was the killing of singer Sidhu Musewala. The Mann government had decided to cut down on VIP security, in which singer Musewala was also named, however, the very next day after this decision, Musewala was killed by firing.
Musewala had a huge fan following in the country and abroad, as well as in the Sangrur area there was a tremendous passion for Musewala. Musewala's fans are directly blaming the wrong policy and short-sightedness of the state government for his murder, the party had to bear the brunt.
In the month of March, April, power crisis was also seen in many areas of punjab, whose effect has also been seen in these results. Although no significant effect of these results will be seen in the punjab government of aam aadmi party, it is certainly that no representative of aam aadmi party will be present in the lok sabha anymore, the only seat won in 2019 is now from the hands of Aam Aadmi Party. Has slipped.
