Uttar Pradesh Lok Sabha Elections 2024

General Elections in Uttar Pradesh holds major significance because the state has the biggest share of seats in Lok Sabha. This year's elections saw the state going to polls across all the seven phases from 19 April to 1 June.

The Nagina constituency of Uttar Pradesh, shaped in 2008 through delimitation, has seen electoral success for SP, BJP, and BSP candidates. Political victories have oscillated between different parties: the SP in 2009, the BJP in 2014, and the coalition of SP-BSP in 2019. What made the contest in Nagina interesting was the entry of a new electoral face - Chandrashekhar Azad.

Azad entered the fray with his newly-formed Azad Samaj Party. Known for his advocacy for Dalit rights, Azad also holds the position of chief of the Bhim Army and is a practicing lawyer. He faced competition from other candidates, including former judge Manoj Kumar from the SP and Om Kumar, an MLA from Nehtaur, one of the 5 assembly constituencies of Nagina, representing the BJP. Candidate of BSP, Surendra Pal Singh, is an MLA from Purquazi assembly constituency.

With the majority of voters being Muslims and Dalits, their loyalties are now divided among SP's Manoj Kumar, BSP's Surender Pal Singh, and Azad. Approximately 46% of the electorate are Muslim, 21% a re Dalit, and the remaining 30% consist of voters from the Chauhan, Saini, and other backward classes.

Out of the 80 Lok Sabha seats in Uttar Pradesh, the state’s ruling party BJP is contesting on 75 of them, while its NDA partners Apna Dal (Soneylal), Rashtriya Lok Dal (RLD) got two seats each and Suheldev Bhartiya Samaj Party (SBSP) got the remaining one seat. According to the INDIA alliance parties in the state, Samajwadi Party (SP), has fielded candidates on 62 seats, leaving 17 seats for Congress and one seat for Trinamool Congress.

In the 2019 Lok Sabha elections in Uttar Pradesh, the two major forces of the state – SP and Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) – joined hands against BJP. But they could only win 15 seats (10 BSP and 5 SP). BJP maintained its edge by winning 62 seats and its ally ADAL secured two seats. Congress could win just one seat. In the previous Lok Sabha elections of 2014, the 'Modi wave' helped BJP win 71 seats and its ally Apna Dal won two seats, too. SP was left with just five, and Congress won two seats. BSP suffered a major upset as it failed to win even a single seat.
