The picture is now clear about the civic elections. Reservation for the posts of councillors from mayor to wards has been decided. Objections will be resolved within a week. With the reservation of wards being decided, the situation regarding the claim has also become clear. Especially in BJP, applications from hundreds of claimants have already been received, some of whom may have been disappointed after the reservation was decided, but most are still staking claim. Now soon election in-charges will be appointed in all the wards, who will check the ground reality of the claims. More than 800 applications have been received in BJP so far for 100 wards. It is being told that the name will be considered only after checking on several parameters by the BJP. Regarding the Dehradun Municipal Corporation elections, the claimants are making rounds of their bosses and have also become active in the area. The party has also started a ward-wise survey. The performance of the recently conducted primary membership and active membership campaign is also being reviewed. Although the contenders have been contesting for the post of councillor for the past two months, but now after the reservation status is clear, many contenders have become more active. The organization will consider the new applications received along with the old applications. A panel has been formed by the BJP Mahanagar and a survey is being conducted. In-charges can be appointed in the wards within two days.
Old councillors will also have to prove themselves
There are many such contenders in the BJP who have been councillors two to three times. Some of them are now claiming the post of mayor, but most are preparing for the post of councillor in the hope of not getting a ticket. However, such contenders will also be judged on strict standards by the organization. If sources are to be believed, the party officials are busy preparing their ground reports as well. It will also be seen that in the last some time, how many programs of the organization they organized in their ward and how much participation they played in the meetings organized from the Mahanagar to the state office. Not only this, their role is also being assessed in the party programs from state to national level. Information has been received from the city that it is necessary to be active in adding workers in the rally. Apart from this, new faces will also have to prove their hold and popularity in their area.
Activity in membership campaign will also be the criterion for ticket
The claim for councilor posts will also be tested through BJP’s primary membership and active membership campaign going on in Doon for the last few months. In this campaign, all the workers were given targets, which many workers found difficult to achieve. In such a situation, party officials can also make this a basis. Also, survey is being done in the wards, in which the activity of the claimants on the ground will be assessed.
