  • The Fight for Uttar Pradesh West by Anupama Ghosh for Any Lok
    Centre for Public Policy Research Independent. In-depth. Insightful The Fight for Uttar Pradesh West By Anupama Ghosh For any Lok Sabha elections, Uttar Pradesh (UP) is a crucial state, comprising the largest number of seats and one of the largest electorates. The western part of the state, popularly known as UP West or Paschim Pradesh, is markedly different from the other divisions of the state. The region comprises vast swathes of agricultural lands, growing sugarcane and potato, which co-exist with parts which have witnessed exponential economic growth because of the region’s proximity to Delhi and the National Capital Region. Similar to the past elections, it seems that UP will be a prized catch and will make an interesting contest. What Makes UP West Crucial? The electorate of UP is an amalgamation of communities, castes and sub-castes. The state has one of the largest proportions of the Other Backward Classes (OBC) and Muslims in the country. The castes and communities like the Jats, Yadavs, Dalits, Jatavs, Thakurs, Rajputs, Gujjars, Brahmins and Muslims call this region of UP West, home. It is the interplay within these castes and communities which makes it an election to watch out for. The last Lok Sabha election is mostly considered to be a wave-election, which was swept by the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) with Narendra Modi at its helm. It may also go down in the electoral history of India as the one election in which the boundaries of the numerous castes and communities were transcended effectively. The BJP Strongholds in 2009 and 2014 Elections In a total of 29 seats in UP West, the BJP swept through 26 of them in the 2014 election.
