By-elections will be held on 9 assembly seats in Uttar Pradesh on november 13. Among these, Sisamau seat, the much talked about seat of Kanpur, is also included. This seat has fallen vacant after SP mla Irfan Solanki was sentenced. This seat is counted among the hot seats of the state, which is why everyone's eyes are on the Sisamau seat. Sisamau assembly seat is considered to be the stronghold of the Samajwadi Party. SP has occupied this seat since 2012. Like other seats in the state, caste equations matter a lot here too. Muslim, Brahmin and Dalit factors play a big role in the victory and defeat of the candidates. If the voter of even one of these communities goes astray, the political equations collapse.
SP trusts the Solanki family
Muslim voters play a decisive role in the victory and defeat in Kanpur's Sisamau seat. Apart from this, Brahmin and Dalit factor is very important, which plays an important role in deciding the fate of any political party. On this seat, Samajwadi party has once again expressed trust in Solanki family. Samajwadi party has fielded Naseem Solanki, wife of current mla Irfan Solanki. SP has again handed over the command to Solanki family to balance the caste equations. Another reason for this is that bharatiya janata party and Bahujan Samaj party have tried their luck on Brahmin faces from here.
Caste equation in Sisamau
The number of Muslim voters on this seat is about 40 percent, which plays a one-sided role in someone's victory or defeat. Whichever political party is successful in wooing Muslim voters in Sisamau, their victory is considered certain.
There is also an equation of Dalit and Brahmin voters on this seat, who if vote unitedly for whomever candidate, that candidate is considered to be the winner. bjp has fielded suresh Awasthi, who has lost twice on this seat, he belongs to Brahmin community. On the other hand, to woo Dalit voters, bjp officials are camping in their settlements. BSP has fielded a strong candidate in Sisamau. BSP has considered Dalit voters as its core voters, Virendra Shukla has been made the candidate to woo Brahmin voters. Having two Brahmin candidates from here can spoil the graph of victory and defeat. It is being said that due to this the votes of the upper class will be divided into two parts. That is why bharatiya janata party is trying its best to woo Dalit voters. On the contrary, it is considered easier for Bahujan Samaj party to attract Dalit vote bank towards itself. BSP candidate is considered to have a strong hold on Brahmin vote bank.
