BJP, Cong Fighting For Second Spot In Dubbak
X
What are the BJP and the Congress fighting for in Dubbak bypoll? Though there is a great groundswell of public support for both the parties and there is clear evidence of anti-incumbency against the TRS, the TRS may ultimately emerge the victor due to better poll management and better strategy.

So, what are the BJP and the Congress fighting for? If sources are to be believed, both the parties are fighting for the second slot. If the BJP emerges the second to TRS, it will occupy the position of the main opposition and some Congress voters might move towards it. In 2023, it can emerge the real challenger for the TRS. Ditto with the Congress. It wants to prove that the BJP's better performance in the Lok Sabha elections is a flash in the pan and nothing more than that. So, it is doing everything it can to stay second in the contest.

With both the main parties fighting for the second slot, instead of emerging as the first, things are becoming easier for the TRS. Sympathy for Solipeta Sujatha, Harish Rao's political acumen, use of money power and better booth management might see through the TRS in the bypoll. Their only worry is that the majority of the TRS candidate should not be less than the 2018 winning margin. Otherwise, the result could be interpreted as anti-incumbency.
