Battle won, but long road ahead for INDIA bloc allies in Chandigarh

Hindustan Times  

With a narrow win for INDIA bloc candidate Manish Tewari in Chandigarh on Tuesday, the battle for the Lok Sabha polls has been won but the road is far from smooth for the alliance in the constituency. A political observer said had Chandigarh been a three cornered contest in the Lok Sabha polls with the AAP contesting the election separately, it would have been more difficult for Tewari to register a win in Chandigarh. While the AAP entered the city with a bang in 2014 Lok Sabha polls with Gul Panag who came third eating into a majority of vote shares of both the Congress and the BJP, the party lost its momentum until the municipal corporation election in 2021 when the city for the first time got a majority from the AAP. A political observer said had Chandigarh been a three cornered contest in the Lok Sabha polls with the AAP contesting the election separately, it would have been more difficult for Tewari to register a win.
