Poll to poll

Times of India  

Times of India’s Edit Page team comprises senior journalists with wide-ranging interests who debate and opine on the news and issues of the day. State electoral landscapes vary too widely to impact one another It is misplaced to find clues to other state elections in J&K and Haryana outcomes. What is certain is that since the emergence of regional/state parties that focus on sovereign issues, there’s no perceptible commonality between different rounds of state elections, even when BJP or Congress are in the fray. It’ll indeed be interesting to know if ‘places’ alter the politics of migrants, or do migrants, in sufficient numbers, change the politics of a ‘place’ – one can then trace some link between state outcomes. This is the first Maharashtra state election that’ll be multiparty-bipolar, viewed more as an extension of LS polls that saw Mahayuti and MVA equally poised pre-poll.
