Modi Magic continues in Bye Polls – Left over Congress citadels too to Saffron camp

published on June 4, 2013

BJP has achieved massive success in Gujarat by-polls. The party has won both Lok Sabha seats that went to by-poll on 2nd June. Both seats were previously occupied by Congress.

In Porbandar. BJP candidate Vitthal Radadia won the by-poll with margin of over one lakh votes defeating rival Congress candidate Vinubhai Amipara. Radadia won Porbandar Lok Sabha poll in year 2009 general elections of Lok Sabha. Later he contested Dhoraji assembly election and won. To retain Dhoraji seat, he resigned from Lok Sabha. Later Radadia joined BJP and resigned from Dhoraji assembly seat. He contested Porbandar Lok Sabha seat again, but this time on BJP ticket.

In Banaskantha, BJP candidate and former MP Haribhai Chaudhary won the election with margin of over 50,000 votes. Haribhai was defeated by Congress candidate late Shri Mukesh Gadhvi in previous elections. Sudden death of Mr. Gadhvi caused by-poll on Banaskantha Lok Sabha seat. Congress had given ticket to late Shri Gadvhi’s widow Krishnaben Gadhvi. BJP once again fielded Haribhai. A man with simple nature, Haribhai mixes with common man very easily. There’s no doubt that an excellent person has been added to Lok Sabha members list.

Soon after his victory with huge margin of over 50,000 votes in Banaskantha Lok Sabha by-poll, winning candidate of BJP Shri Haribhai Chaudhary announced his decision that he would not hold a victory procession.

Haribhai said he would not hold a victory procession to respect late Congress MP Shri Mukesh Gadhvi whose sudden death caused by-poll here. Decision of not holding victory procession was also taken considering the fact that late MP Mukesh Gadhvi’s widow Krishnaben Gadhvi was Congress candidate here.
