High-stakes battle for Jai Ram Thakur in Himachal Pradesh

India TV News  

Himachal Pradesh's four parliamentary seats -- Mandi, Hamirpur, Kangra and Shimla -- that vote in the seventh and final phase of polling for the Lok Sabha elections on Sunday, have become a high-stakes battle for the BJP's star campaigner and first-time Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur. With the electorate, traditionally in the Lok Sabha polls, favouring the party at the helm in the state, these elections are being seen as a referendum on Himachal Pradesh's 17-month- old BJP government. While in Mandi, Kangra and Shimla, it's about steering his party to victory, in Hamirpur it's a battle of supremacy between the Chief Minister and his two-time predecessor Prem Kumar Dhumal, who has almost been marginalised in state politics after a humiliating defeat in the 2017 Assembly polls. "It is a do-or-die battle for Jai Ram Thakur to retain the Mandi seat and that too with the highest margin in the state," a senior BJP leader told IANS.
