Sudgles de Delhi: Smriti Irani vs Saurabh Bharadwaj?
The name of Smriti Irani would have been returned to the BJP to present a candidate of the headquarters of the Assembly of Grand Kalash during the elections of the Delhi Assembly of February 5.
Delhi’s Minister of Health, Sarabh Bharadwaj, is fighting in the GK riding. He is triple deputy AAP of Greater Kalash and one of the members of the seniormost party.
According to a Indian Express Report, noting the popularity of Bharadwaj in the GK seat, the BJP is looking for a “strong” competitor to challenge it.
Irani is one of the three executive women who are considered against the deputy AAP. The other names that make the rounds are the former Minister of the Union Meenakshi Lekhi, the former mayor Arti Mehra and Shikha Rai, an in -office advisor to the GK room.
“The GK seat has become a very important constituency during our survey discussions. Last Friday, the BJP Delhi elections, Baijayant Panda, was tried by the central electoral committee to request the consent of the planned candidates, including a former Delhi deputy, “said a source from the BJP to the newspaper.
According to the report, the Delhi base committee held a one -hour meeting with the senior management on Monday, January 13 to finalize the remaining names for the polls, where it was suggested by the unit of Delhi BJP to present a candidate solid like Irani.
However, sources close to Irani have ransacked the reports, Indian Express She was not in the “race”. The other women leaders, however, expressed their interest in presenting themselves to the GK headquarters.
The BJP has announced 59 candidates for the elections of 70 members of the Delhi assembly so far.
Meanwhile, some BJP politicians also warned against the “parachuting” of outside leaders after projected the former officer of the IPS Kiran Bedi as a CM side of the Safran party in Delhi in 2015 and Lost polls.
Rise and climb of Smriti Irani
While the spotlights turned to Smriti Irani again, we will take a look at his meteoric ascent and his fall in the BJP.
A popular television star, Irani joined the BJP in 2003 and made his electoral debut a year later.
Born and raised in Delhi, she challenged the Lok Sabha elections in 2004 by Chandni Chowk in Delhi, against the Kapil Sibal Congress. The Congress chief beat Irani with a margin of more than 80,000 votes.
The BJP had hoped to take the popularity of Iran as responsible for one of the most watched soap opera in India. Despite its defeat, Irani continued to increase within the BJP.
“The electoral campaign has helped present its oratory and the true value of its celebrity status,” said the businessman based in Delhi, Sudhanshu Mittal, The caravan in 2016.
In 2004, Irani upset the leaders of the BJP by declaring that it would undertake “fast until death” if Narendra Modi did not move as chief minister of Gujarat. His public retraction of the declaration and a meeting with Modi helped her save his political career.
She passed the rows of the party, even becoming the president of the BJP Mahila Morcha in 2010. A year later, she was elected deputy of Rajya Sabha of Gujarat.
In 2014, Irani challenged the general elections of the Amethi Lok Sabha siege of the Uttar Pradesh against Rahul Gandhi of the Congress. As she lost the polls, the head of the BJP reduced Gandhi’s margin of victory by 3.70 Lakh voted in 2009 to 1.07 Lakh votes, according to a India today report.
Irani has been awarded and appointed to lead the High Level Human Resources Department (HRD), now known as the Ministry of Education.
However, during a reshuffle of the cabinet in 2016, it was withdrawn from the DRH Ministry and was transferred to the Ministry of Textiles in the first Modi government. Its public spots with opposition leaders and the differences with the senior BJP leaders and the colleagues of the cabinet were considered its loss, reported Economic times (and).
The development had arrived a year after being abandoned from the national executive of the BJP.
Irani has become a giant killer in the 2019 Lok Sabha Sabha polls, beating Rahul Gandhi in the seat of Amethi Lok Sabha. With this, Gandhi became the first president of the Congress of the Nehru-Gandhi family to lose an election of Lok Sabha.
The Iranian feat was recognized by the party and it was retained in the Modi 2.0. In addition to the textiles, Irani has received the key portfolio for women and the development of the child.
Amethi lost, but Delhi then?
The Irani remained in public dazzling after defeating the heavy goods vehicle of the Rahul Gandhi congress in his district of his Family of Amethi in 2019.
Confident of her victory in the polls of Lok Sabha in 2024 of Amethi, Irani had made fun of the reports of Rahul Gandhi or her sister, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, fighting against her, saying that “the one who comes will surely be beaten”.
However, the congress aligned Kl Sharma, a loyalist of the Gandhi family, of Amethi. In a major setback, the BJP failed to guarantee a majority in the elections of Lok Sabha 2024. Irani was one of the leaders of the Bigwig BJP who lost the polls.
Accepting his defeat, Irani had said in a tweet at the time: “This is life … A decade of my life ranging from one village to another, building lives, nourishing hope and aspirations, working on Infrastructure – roads, Naali, Khadanjabypass, medical college and more. For those who supported me by loss and victory, I am eternally grateful. To those who celebrate today, congratulations. And to those who ask: “How is Josh?” I say – it’s always high, sir.
She did not succeed as minister in the third Modi government. However, Irani continues to be in the public’s eyes and takes the opposition.
After his beat of Lok Sabha, the former Minister of Union was increasingly involved in BJP activities in Delhi, which increases speculation about his “role” in the urban unit of the party.
BJP initiates think that Irani could counter ex-Delhi CM Kejriwal, fill the gap in the rows of the saffron party with a “charismatic leader”, reported Indian Express.
The BJP has not yet revealed its cards with regard to its plans, if necessary, for Iran in the Delhi elections.
