Senior journalist Shekhar Iyer, a former Senior Associate Editor of the Hindustan Times and Political Editor of the Deccan Herald in New Delhi, told PGurus that Nagaland will not pose a significant challenge to the BJP before the Lok Sabha election in 2024. He said this on Saturday during a live stream with PGurus founder Sree Iyer on the subject, “What BJP needs to do to win decisively in Karnataka, Tripura, Manipur, and Nagaland.”

 

According to Shekhar Iyer, whatever party wins the state Assembly election in the North-Eastern states, they always vote for the party in the centre because “they are heavily dependent on central assistance and central funds.”

 

He did, however, mention that wherever the BJP is in a coalition party, there is a pressure to contest all seats and not submit to the regional party.

 

“The same problem is in Nagaland. There are political aspiration issues for the BJP,” he adds.

 

He went on to say that the North-East is crucial for the BJP in the Lok Sabha election in 2024 because Assam alone has 14 seats.

 

“Apart from that, 20-21 seats come from the North-East, so it is very important.”

 

“The BJP will definitely keep its focus on the North East, and will try to win Tripura as well as Meghalaya and Nagaland,” he added.

 

 

PGurus, Inc. is a California C-Corporation, incorporated in the state of California, United States.
