Lessons Unlearned
The Statesman|December 01, 2024
The recent assembly election results in Jharkhand highlighted significant challenges for the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), led by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).

Despite deploying its top leadership and resources, the NDA suffered a major setback, with the Hemant Soren-led alliance decisively retaining power. This defeat reveals deep structural and strategic flaws within the NDA, offering important lessons for future battles.

One of the most glaring missteps was the government's decision to arrest Chief Minister Hemant Soren. Rather than weakening his political standing, this move galvanised tribal communities and created a wave of sympathy for Mr Soren. The tribal belt, historically critical to the BJP's electoral success, overwhelmingly turned to the INDIA bloc, leaving the BJP with just one victory in the 28 tribal-reserved constituencies. This stark shift underscores the importance of understanding regional political dynamics and the risks of aggressive tactics that can backfire.
