Lok Sabha Polls 2024: Will Bareilly Ka Bazaar continue to be music to BJP's ears?

The upcoming election in Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh, takes on new dimensions as BJP stalwart Santosh Singh Gangwar is denied a ticket after eight terms, making it a battleground for the Opposition INDIA bloc. Former Union minister Gangwar's replacement, Chhatrapal Singh Gangwar, faces off against Congress-turned-SP candidate Praveen Singh Aron. While BJP remains confident in Chhatrapal's candidacy, Aron's campaign is bolstered by the support of SP's Bhagwat Saran Gangwar and discontent over Santosh's exclusion.
