Today, the BJP in Himachal Pradesh has made a strategic move by nominating Harsh Mahajan as their candidate for the Rajya Sabha, challenging the Congress party. Harsh Mahajan will be pitted against Congress candidate Abhishek Manu in what promises to be a closely contested battle. Speculation is rife that several Congress MLAs may cross party lines to support the BJP candidate, underscoring dissatisfaction with the current state government among certain members. With the Congress holding 40 MLAs and the support of three independents, compared to the BJP’s 25 MLAs, this contest is poised to be a significant challenge for the Congress party. It serves as a litmus test for Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu and highlights the delicate balance of political dynamics in the state.
