BJP eyes 18,900 UP booths that slipped away in 2024

The BJP is intensifying its booth-level efforts in Uttar Pradesh for the 2027 elections. The party aims to regain approximately 18,900 booths lost in the recent Lok Sabha polls. Significant booth erosion occurred in rural areas, particularly in Awadh and Purvanchal regions. Shifting OBC and Dalit votes towards the Samajwadi Party contributed to these losses. Local issues and anti-incumbency also impacted the BJP's performance in certain areas.
