BJP strategically positioned its candidate for the upcoming Rajya Sabha elections, pitching Harsh Mahajan in a tight race

The BJP in Himachal Pradesh has strategically positioned its candidate for the upcoming Rajya Sabha elections, pitching Harsh Mahajan  in a tight race against the Congress nominee, Abhishek Manu. Amidst rumors that a number of Congress MLAs might cast their votes in favor of the BJP’s prospect, the competition is anticipated to be intense.
Dissatisfaction with the current state administration among several Congress legislators has been noted, along with unresolved internal issues that could potentially lead to an embarrassing situation for the Congress. The party currently holds 40 seats and is supported by 3 independents, while the BJP has 25 MLAs behind them. The outcome of the elections could pose a critical challenge for the Chief Minister, Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu, and serve as a crucial test of his leadership.
