  • Emergence of Political Parties in Himachal Pradesh from 1951 to 2017
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Invention (IJHSSI) ISSN (Online): 2319 – 7722, ISSN (Print): 2319 – 7714 www.ijhssi.org ||Volume 7 Issue 06 Ver. IV ||Jun. 2018 || PP.73-80 Emergence of Political Parties in Himachal Pradesh from 1951 to 2017 Lalit Kumar Sharma1 1Project Officer, Department of Interdisciplinary Studies, Institute of Integrated Himalayan Studies, UGC Centre of Excellence, Himachal Pradesh University, Summer Hill, Shimla-171005 Corresponding Author: Lalit Kumar Sharma ABSTRACT: Party system in India is inimitable and can be described by the singular nature of Indian politics on one hand, and state-society association on the other. In the last few decades, the nature of Indian politics has undergone transformation both in nature of relationship between the state and the society and the state of Himachal is no exception to this. One of the very significant indicators of transformation is evident in the context of the politicization of greater number of people, particularly those belonging to the underprivileged class of society. This describes the change in the nature of party system too. The unique characteristics which described the party system of India in the first two decades after independence are no longer seen. To comprehend the present evolution of party system, it is important to trace its history vis-à-vis its political rational in view of the changing state-society rapport. In 1948, when the state of Himachal Pradesh first came into being as a Union Territory till 1971 when it eventually attained the statehood, and up to present day, the political and administrative history of state has seen many ups and downs, which has molded the present day Himachal.

  • Himachal Politics - a Generational Shift!
    Himachal Politics - A Generational Shift! After its chief ministerial nominee Prem Kumar Dhumal suffered a shocking defeat in the Himachal Pradesh assembly election, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) announced the name of Jai Ram Thakur as the party’s chief ministerial candidate. The name of Thakur, a five-time member of legislative assembly (MLA) from the Seraj constituency in Mandi district, was announced after a meeting between the party’s central observers—Union ministers Nirmala Sitharaman and Narinder Singh Tomar—and newly elected members of the legislative assembly (MLAs) and other party leaders in Shimla. The nomination of 52-year-old Thakur also marks a generational shift in the politics of the hill state as it breaks away from power alternating between the Congress and the BJP under the respective leaderships of Virbhadra Singh and Prem Kumar Dhumal. The BJP had swept the hill state in the recently concluded state elections, winning 44 of the 68 assembly seats with a vote share of 48.8%, reducing the Congress party to 21 seats. However, Dhumal, whose nomination had proved to be a shot in the arm for the BJP in an otherwise neck-and-neck fight, suffered a shocking defeat, losing the Sujanpur assembly seat. Political analysts say that it is a well thought out decision where Thakur has been rewarded for helping BJP win nine of 10 seats in the Mandi district to which he belongs. Thakur was nowhere in the race for the top post when the party launched its poll campaign. It had the anti- incumbency against the Virbhadra Singh Congress government to its advantage along with the tradition of Himachal bringing in alternative forces to power every five years.

  • Himachal Pradesh Post-Poll 2012-Survey Findings
    Himachal Pradesh Post-poll 2012-Survey Findings HIMACHAL PRADESH ASSEMBLY ELECTION 2012: POST POLL SURVEY BY LOKNITI, CENTRE FOR THE STUDY OF DEVELOPING SOCIETIES The findings presented here are based on a post-poll survey conducted by the Centre for the Study of Developing Societies (CSDS), Delhi, in Himachal Pradesh in November 2012. It is important to note that this was a post-poll survey conducted at the respondents’ homes a few days after the state went to elections, and not an exit poll which is conducted among voters on the day of voting right outside the polling booth. The purpose of the post-poll survey is not just to find out the voters’ political preferences and forecast the result, but to also determine the reasons for people’s political choices. The post-poll survey in Himachal Pradesh was conducted nearly three weeks after the completion of a pre-poll survey conducted by CSDS in mid-October in the state. In order to study the shift in people’s mood between the two surveys, the post-poll survey was conducted in the same 30 Assembly constituencies where the pre-poll survey was conducted. The respondents for the post-poll survey were also kept the same as the respondents of the pre-poll survey, barring three Assembly constituencies where they were changed as the achieved sample size during the pre-poll exercise was found to be much less than the target. The 30 Assembly constituencies, 4 polling booths within each sampled constituency, and 30 respondents within each sampled polling booth, were all selected using the Systematic Random Sampling technique (a random starting point on each sample frame was chosen and then selections were made at fixed intervals).
