Top BJP leaders including Union Home Minister Amit Shah, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, and Road Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari are set to headline the party's campaign in Arunachal Pradesh for the upcoming Lok Sabha and Assembly elections. 

 

Arunachal Pradesh is poised for simultaneous polls on April 19, encompassing two Lok Sabha seats and 60 assembly constituencies. 

 

The campaign trail is expected to witness a flurry of activity with Shah scheduled to address a rally in Aalo, West Siang district, on April 6, as disclosed by senior party leader, Tarh Tarak.

 

The party's central leadership has approved the participation of five Union ministers and BJP president Jagat Prashad Nadda in the campaigning efforts.

 

Alongside Shah, prominent leaders like Sarbananda Sonowal, Piyush Goyal, and Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma will also galvanize support for the BJP in the state.

 

Additionally, Nagaland's Deputy Chief Minister Yanthungo Patton and Tourism Minister Temjen Imma Along have been enlisted as star campaigners, reflecting the strategic importance accorded to Arunachal Pradesh in the electoral landscape.

 

A strong contingent of state leaders, led by Chief Minister Pema Khandu and Deputy Chief Minister Chowna Mein, will complement the campaign efforts of the central leadership. 

 

This includes BJP state president Biyuram Wahge and other senior figures.

 

The electoral battleground in Arunachal Pradesh features 15 candidates vying for the two Lok Sabha seats, with a multi-cornered contest anticipated in the Arunachal West constituency. 

 

Notably, Union Minister Kiren Rijiju faces a formidable challenge from Arunachal Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) president Nabam Tuki, among others.

 

In the Eastern Parliamentary seat, incumbent MP Tapir Gao will lock horns with Congress candidate Bosiram Siram, highlighting the competitive spirit of the electoral contest.

 

With 195 candidates in the fray for the 60 assembly constituencies, the political landscape in Arunachal Pradesh promises to be dynamic and closely contested. 

 

The BJP's dominant performance in the 2019 assembly elections, securing 41 seats, underscores its formidable presence in the state's political arena.

 

As the campaign gathers momentum, all eyes are on the BJP's star campaigners and their ability to mobilize support ahead of the crucial polls. 

 

With counting scheduled for June 2 for Assembly polls and June 4 for Lok Sabha polls, the political landscape in Arunachal Pradesh is poised for a significant transformation.
