BJP now has an upper hand in elections

Leaders will be elected from the state to Rajya Sabha on 4 seats. Three BJP candidates and two Congress candidates have filed papers for these. In terms of mathematics so far, BJP could win only two seats. After the resignation of 8 Congress MLAs, now his seat is also getting heavy on the third seat. This election will be held with social distancing. Especially three BJP MLAs were infected with Coronavirus. Now their voting will also have to be arranged. Proxy voting may also be considered. Proxy voting will have to be demanded a day in advance.
