Now only a few days are left for the assembly elections to be held in Maharashtra. The Election Commission can announce the elections within the next 15 days. In such a situation, political leaders are completely ready to jump into the electoral battle. Politicians will adopt all kinds of tactics to woo the public. Some will shed crocodile tears, while others will open a box of promises to woo the public. To get an idea of this, we are also doing assembly constituency wise analysis. Bharatiya Janata Party has declared Chainsukh Madanlal Sancheti as its candidate on this seat.
Malkapur assembly constituency is located in Buldhana district. This seat is made up of two tehsils, Nandura and Malkapur of Buldhana district. But Malkapur assembly seat is not in Buldhana parliamentary constituency but is part of Raver Lok Sabha constituency of Jalgaon district. Apart from Malkapur, Raver Lok Sabha seat includes Chopra, Raver, Bhusaval, Jamner and Muktainagar assembly seats. Buldhana parliamentary constituency includes Buldhana, Chikhali, Sindkhed Raja, Mehkar, Khamgaon and Jalgaon (Jamod) assembly seats.
The history of Malkapur assembly seat is quite old. This seat has been in existence since 1952. This seat is also called the stronghold of BJP. Because BJP has been in control here continuously since 1999. But in the 2019 assembly elections, Rajesh Ekade of Congress demolished the fort of BJP.
Understand the caste statistics of Malkapur seat
Dalit-Muslim alliance plays an important role in making any candidate victorious in this assembly seat. According to the 2019 assembly data, there are a total of 2 lakh 68 thousand 718 voters on this seat. Out of which 20 percent are Muslims and around 14 percent are Dalit voters. Besides, there are also around 5 percent tribal voters.
equations of 2024
After losing the Malkapur assembly seat, which is a BJP stronghold, to the Congress in 2019, the BJP will try hard to take it back. This seat falls in the Rawal parliamentary constituency where BJP’s Raksha Khadse has won the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. At the same time, Congress will not want to lose the seat it had won last time. In such a situation, the fight between BJP and Congress as to whom the people of Malkapur will choose is a mystery hidden in the depths of the future.
