The state of Chhattisgarh has 11 <keyword id="6355187" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="lok-sabha">Lok Sabha</keyword> constituencies in total. The number of assembly constituencies here are 90. Following its thumping victory from the state, the BJP holds 10 out of 11 seats leaving only one constituency namely Durg for the Congress party. During the 2018 assembly elections, the BJP suffered a serious setback in the state as the Congress party knocked off the ruling party and won a phenomenal number of 68 out of 90 states in Chhattisgarh. Raman Singh, the former chief minister and BJP leader assume personal responsibility for the defeat and submitted his resignation. In the Lok Sabha elections 2019, the ruling party of India is now left to ride on the feat it suffered during last year. In the Durg constituency, BJP’s Vijay Bhagel contested with Smt. Pratima Chandrakar of the Congress party. In the Bastar seat, Baiduram Kashyap locked horns with Deepak Baij of Congress. CPI has nominated Ramu Ram Mourya and BSP has listed Aaytu Ram Mandavi from this parliamentary seat all waiting to look at the 2019 Lok Sabha elections results eagerly.

Chhattisgarh Lok Sabha Election Result 2019: BJP gets 9 seats

Lok Sabha Election 2019 Candidate List for Chattisgarh

Lok Sabha Election 2019 Second Phase - 95 Constituency Candidate List from Key Parties

NEW DELHI: As if the burden of incumbency wasn’t enough, <keyword id="1575" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="80" keywordseo="Congress">Congress</keyword>'s task in the current <keyword id="6355187" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="40" keywordseo="Lok-Sabha">Lok Sabha</keyword> polls seems to have been further complicated by what party managers claim is a severe funds crunch, which has put it at a further disadvantage vis-a-vis a resurgent BJP. 
 
A Congress heavyweight told this paper, “Between Congress and BJP, they are getting 90% of the money, we are getting just 10%.” Even if that sounds like a bit of an exaggeration, conversations with Congress candidates and their managers over the past week indicate that the ruling party has, for a change, been vastly outgunned by the BJP, and may actually be running on half-empty. 
 
“I have seen several Lok Sabha and assembly elections, but the financial deficit Congress is facing this time is unprecedented,” says a veteran Congress MP. 
 
Saffron is daubed all over – on billboards, bus stand shelters, kiosks and newspapers – forming the backdrop to the smiling visage of Narendra Modi. When you don’t see him, you hear him on the radio and on your phone. Indeed, rarely has the country seen such an election advertising blitz. 
 In comparison, the Congress appears in bits and patches. <keyword id="5268" type="PERSON" weightage="40" keywordseo="Rahul-Gandhi">Rahul Gandhi</keyword>, with several aam admi and aurat in tow, stands defensively with his hands folded on billboards, which are few and far between. 
 
Party managers in states like Chhattisgarh, Punjab and Maharashtra say the money this time is well below normal. The big donors – industrialists and other sundry moneybags – appear to have divined which way the wind is blowing. And their money is flowing in that direction. 
 While Congress claims the gap is due to big business's proximity to Modi – there are stories of how at least two houses are backing him to the hilt – those familiar with the business of campaign finance say <keyword id="46431" type="CITY" weightage="40" keywordseo="India-Inc">India Inc</keyword> makes a cold-blooded assessment of the prospects of different contenders, more so in this era of coalitions and diverse polity when different parties are at the helm in different states and smaller parties enjoy disproportionate clout in decision-making. So the money is distributed after calculating who needs to be kept happy where. 
 
 
 
Congress’s own success in the UPA years bears testimony to this. The party, which won in 2004 ostensibly because of a backlash against BJP’s ‘India Shining’ pitch – shorthand for pro-business – and zealously pursued its aam aadmi plank, pulled in more funds than the BJP in the last decade. 
 
According to income tax returns filed by the two parties and analyzed by Association for Democratic Reforms (ADR), Congress’ income in 2004-05, the year UPA-1 was formed, was Rs 222 crore against BJP’s Rs 104 crore. Ever since, the ruling party’s coffers have swelled and its total income in the eight years till 2011-12, the latest for which I-T returns are available, was Rs 2,338 crore. During the eight-year period, BJP received Rs 1,303 crore. The big two were followed by CPM with an income of Rs 520 crore and BSP with around Rs 500 crore. 
 
This story seems to have changed. Congress veterans in Uttar Pradesh say flow of funds from the party is down almost 30% this time. The party typically sends one-fourth of the amount by cheque to the candidate’s account. The rest comes in cash; this is mainly directed towards winnable seats. Said a sitting MP from Maharashtra: “The well-off candidates can make do without leaning on the party, but the others are badly hamstrung this time.” 
 
Leading business houses, and sectors that are flush with cash like real estate and mining, are this time almost fully behind the BJP. Half of the 48 Congress-NCP candidates in Maharashtra that TOI spoke to admitted as much. A top builder told this paper, “Most of us are very unhappy with the (Maharashtra) government. In the last three years, hardly any projects have been cleared.” 
 
The paucity of funds is apparent from the delay in their disbursal. In 2009, “official” financial assistance came immediately after the names of candidates were announced. This year, the party candidates in Western UP – which goes to the polls in the first three rounds – have had to wait till the last date of withdrawal before receiving any assistance. 
 
In the December assembly polls, sources said the central leadership gave Rs 60 lakh for most seats in Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh, while Delhi and Rajasthan had Congress governments which took care of the candidates. 
 
Partymen in Chhattisgarh say only two seats are likely to see “extra and special” financial help. There was fond hope that the party would give funds to individual seats at par with what was given in 2009, with a hike based on five years of inflation – Rs 1 crore per seat. Nothing has come yet. The anxiety stems from the fact that Congressmen are up against candidates being supported by three-time chief minister Raman Singh who is flush with funds and has the backing of industrialists. 
 Most leaders in resource-rich Punjab are said to be capable of self-financing yet party money matters in the fight against Akali Dal. A senior leader confessed “it will be like this” – which means that expectations of central <keyword id="6357455" type="EVENT" weightage="40" keywordseo="Funding">funding</keyword> have to be lowered this time. 
 
The most curious case is the financial powerhouse of Maharashtra. Though Congress has been in government in Mumbai for 15 years, a party leader confessed, “Even we are feeling it.” The state has traditionally done without central funding, but this time candidates are having to canvas support personally and even ask resourceful colleagues for help. 
 
In the 2009 Lok Sabha and assembly polls, most Congress nominees had received a healthy financial boost from the party; some figures put it at Rs 50 lakh per candidate. Not this time. 
 
UP Congress leaders say Congress follows a standard system for fund distribution here. Constituencies are graded ‘A’, ‘B’ or ‘C’, depending on the strength of a candidate and the seat’s winnability, ‘A’ being the strongest and ‘C’ the weakest. Funds are then allotted accordingly. 
 
Congressmen say the party has released up to Rs 50 lakh for seats like Ghaziabad and Saharanpur – both ‘A’ grade seats. Bigger electoral fights like Lucknow and Varanasi are expected to attract more funds – up to Rs 3-4 crore. 
 
In all this, Congress leaders say, the worst affected would be states like Tamil Nadu where the party has no hope this election after its failure to find a strong ally. Given the dismal state of affairs, TN candidates are not only low on the central leadership’s list of priorities, they unable to find sponsors even locally. 
 
In Karnataka, it’s different. Several Congress candidates have intensified their campaign minus any financial support from the party. But they aren’t complaining. “Gone are the days when we used to get an assured sum from the party. Now there is an unwritten rule in the party that candidates have to fight elections on their own. We are not sure whether it’s because of a funds crunch or any other reason,” says a party candidate, who is fighting his second successive Lok Sabha polls.

Congress Candidates Aren’t Getting Much Money From The Party

142 million voters go to polls today in 20 states—  here’s a look at the key issues in every state

NEW DELHI: BJP faces a tough test in Bihar, <keyword id="1575" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="80" keywordseo="Congress">Congress</keyword> stares at a saffron challenge in Maharashtra and regional outfits contend with turning pitches on 117 <keyword id="6355187" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="40" keywordseo="Lok-Sabha">Lok Sabha</keyword> seats across 11 states and one union territory where polling is due on Thursday. 
 
The 2014 Lok Sabha polls will be more than half over after elections to 347 seats are complete after the sixth phase of voting, with the 84, 91 and 41 seats left in the remaining phases. 
 
BJP and Congress are squaring off in Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan and state bosses like Trinamool chief Mamata Banerjee, AIADMK's J Jayalalitha and NCP leader Sharad Pawar are also slugging it out with their rivals. 
 
This phase will settle the fate of political biggies like SP chief Mulayam Singh Yadav and BJP leader Sushma Swaraj besides others like PDP’s Mehbooba Mufti, DMK's A Raja and Congress’s Mohammad Azharuddin. 
 
The political topography is a challenge to BJP and Congress which need to defend turfs while seeking fresh gains even as regional forces like SP, BSP, AIADMK and DMK look to do much the same, with the difference that some now see BJP as an unanticipated threat. 
 
All of 39 seats in Tamil Nadu and one seat of Puducherry will go to polls while elections will be over in major states like Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan. In Maharashtra the populous bell weather Mumbai-Thane-Kalyan belt will vote along with northern areas and Raigad. 
 The contests in Mumbai are keen, with Shiv Sena-BJP hoping to snatch seats from Congress-NCP riding on an anti-UPA wave and the diminished presence of <keyword id="6355257" type="PERSON" weightage="40" keywordseo="Raj-Thackeray">Raj Thackeray</keyword>'s MNS. 
 
 
 
 
Tamil Nadu is a fascinating mosaic, with front runner AIADMK losing some steam while DMK reportedly making a comeback of sorts and BJP’s unlikely alliance with DMDK, MDMK and PMK emerging as a force on its own. 
 In Bihar, a virtual eclipse of <keyword id="123462" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="40" keywordseo="Janata-Dal">Janata Dal</keyword> (U) poses problems for BJP with the fight appearing bi-polar in the five seats in Seemanchal and two that fall outside the region. There is a sizeable Muslim population in all seats and though BJP has been winning Araria, Purnea, Katihar and Bhagalpur, it now faces elections on its own. RJD boss Lalu Prasad and Congress seem to be back in the reckoning in the state. 
 
Mulayam Singh Yadav defends his base of Etah-Mainpuri-Etawah, areas where he must score to check a resurgent BJP with reports from 21 seats in western UP and Rohilkhand indicating gains for the saffronites. 
 
Though support for BSP is harder to gauge, SP’s main regional rival seems to be feeling the heat with religious polarisation post Muzaffarnagar riots making several contests primarily BJP versus SP affairs. 
 For BJP, the stakes continue to be high with its prime ministerial candidate <keyword id="6354477" type="PERSON" weightage="40" keywordseo="Narendra-Modi">Narendra Modi</keyword> campaigning hard, addressing rallies in Hardoi, Etah, Firozabad and Mathura on Monday hoping for significant gains. 
 
The Jat vote is a factor in just as Yadavs are expected to rally behind SP while Akbarpur has sent BSP chief Mayawati to Lok Saba twice, most recently in 2004. 
 
In Rajasthan, prestigious Jat-influenced seats like Alwar and Bharatpur are due to poll along with constituencies like Tonk, Dausa and Sawai-Madhopur. 
 
In Chhattisgarh, urbanising seats like Durg, Raipur and Bilaspur will be voting with Congress hoping to loosen BJP's seeming stranglehold. 
 In West Bengal, Abhijeet Mukherjee, son of President <keyword id="6359124" type="PERSON" weightage="40" keywordseo="Pranab-Mukherjee">Pranab Mukherjee</keyword>, is facing an uphill battle, with Murshidabad presenting the only bright spot for the party. 
 In Assam constituencies like Kokrajhar, that witnessed fierce rioting, and capital Guwahati are going to polls. In Madhya Pradesh, BJP veterans like Sumitra Mahajan (Indore) and Sushma Swaraj (Vidisha) will seek re-election besides Congress's Meenakshi Natarajan, seen to be close to <keyword id="5268" type="PERSON" weightage="40" keywordseo="Rahul-Gandhi">Rahul Gandhi</keyword>, from Mandsaur.

Lok Sabha Polls: Voting In 117 Seats Today; Congress Faces Saffron Challenge

NEW DELHI: Looking to cement its frontrunner status, BJP faces a formidable array of rivals ranging from Congress, Samajwadi Party, BSP, Janata Dal(U) to Jharkhand Mukti Morcha as the biggest round of polling in 121 seats in 12 states takes place on Thursday. 
 
Though BJP is expected to do well in Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh where it won state polls last December, it needs to prove its mettle in UP and Bihar and retrieve ground lost to Congress in the Karnataka election in 2013. 
 
A strong performance by BJP in UP, Maharashtra and Bihar, which account for 168 seats, is critical for the party to cross the 200-seat mark, crucial to powering BJP, and specifically its PM candidate Narendra Modi, to the magic halfway mark of 272. 
 
The Shiv Sena and BJP have their task cut out in western Maharashtra’s Maratha belt where the Congress-NCP control over sugar cooperatives gives them significant political clout. NCP chief Sharad Pawar’s family boroughs of Madha and Baramati will also be tested. 
 
The central stretch of Bihar going to polls is a big test for Janata Dal(U) leader Nitish Kumar as the party holds important seats like Arrah, Nalanda and Munger and must contend with the two-pronged threat of RJD-Congress and BJP-LJP. 
 
BJP needs a high strike rate to remain on course to winning more than 20 of Bihar’s 40 Lok Sabha seats, an objective integral to the party’s hopes of picking up a rich haul of seats in UP and Bihar. 
JD(U) is at risk of being squeezed out of the frame with RJD-Congress appearing a preferred option for Muslims and upper castes, as well as a chunk of middle castes gravitating towards BJP which has sought to encash Modi’s backward caste credentials. 
 
In UP, BJP is banking on a counter-mobilization that cuts across castes to help it challenge SP and check BSP. The latter may face the toughest test as it must compete with SP for the minority vote while protecting parts of its dalit base from drifting to the BJP. 
 
In the 11 seats of Odisha that include tribal ones like Keonjhar and Mayurbhanj as well as those in the coastal heartland, BJP has emerged as a surprise force but its capacity to convert support into seats will be tested by lack of organized presence. 
 
In MP, BJP holds most of the 10 seats and Congress leader Jyotiraditya Scindia remains the sole hope. In Bengal, Congress has been reduced to a bit player with even BJP grabbing more eyeballs. In Jharkhand, BJP has just two of the six seats up for grabs, and hopes to improve at the cost of Congress-JMM and Babulal Marandi’s JVM(P).
