BJP gets more votes in village where Hardik Patel campaigned, Nakia trailing in own village

Rajkot: Some vocal indicative points emerging from BJP candidate’s Jasdan by-poll victory:

Congress aide and quota agitation leader Hardik Patel had addressed a public meeting in Rupavati village in attempt to damage BJP and benefit Congress. BJP has emerged leading party in this village with margin of 300 votes.

At Kamalpur village, which belongs to another Patidar quota agitation leader Dinesh Bambhania, BJP candidate has emerged ahead of rival Congress candidate by margin of 700 votes.

Congress candidate Avsar Nakia is district panchayat member elected from Asalpur village. Nakia has received 514 votes from this place while BJP candidate has got 764 votes. Thus Nakia has failed to get majority in his own district panchayat constituency.
