State Legislative Assembly Elections 2019: Maharashtra And Haryana

Surveying The Maharashtra And Haryana Assembly Elections 2019

The assembly elections in two states of India, Haryana and Maharashtra, have commenced from October 2019. According to the details released by the Election Commission, the people of Maharashtra and Haryana will vote for the 14th State Legislative Assembly on 21 October. The counting of votes will take place 3 days later, i.e., 24 October 2019. Come evening, everyone will know clearly which political party will come into power in these states and who will have to face defeat. 


According to Chief Election Commissioner Sunil Arora, the term of the 288-member Maharashtra assembly ends on 9 November, while that of the 90-member Haryana assembly will come to an end on 2 November. Therefore, the elections in both the states will be held on time.


In the 2014 Maharashtra Assembly elections, Congress suffered defeat and the Bharatiya Janata Party came to power with its ally Shiv Sena. As a result, Mr Devendra Fadnavis of the Bharatiya Janata Party became the Chief Minister of Maharashtra. This year, Congress has tied up with the Nationalist Congress Party or NCP, led by Sharad Pawar. However, it is worth noting that the ED has its eyes set on Sharad Pawar and the noose seems to be tightening as the day passes. 

Coming to Haryana, Bharatiya Janata Party had formed the government last time there as well and did its best in demarcating Congress and the Omprakash Chautala-led-INLD. Presently, Mr Manohar Lal Khattar of BJP is the Chief Minister of Haryana. The Akali Dal of Mr Parkash Singh Badal that supported BJP in the Punjab elections, has decided to contest on its own this time.

This time the Bharatiya Janata Party is ready as a strong contender in the Vidhan Sabha elections and the opposition seems to be divided into different camps. Even Aam Aadmi Party, led by Arvind Kejriwal has also mentioned about being a part of these elections. 

In such a scenario, the contest will be enthralling because on the one hand, BJP's credibility is at stake and it will try to grab all the seats. On the other is the question that will the divided opposition be able to pose a challenge to BJP by becoming united.

Keeping all these things in mind, we are attempting to find out which party will wear the crown of success in the upcoming assembly elections, and who will have to face defeat. We have taken the help of Vedic astrology to come to a conclusion, and based on the planetary movements and nakshatra, we have uncovered some interesting things, which we are discussing below.

Planetary Transits This October


Venus will make its transit through the zodiac sign Libra on 4 October, which is its own sign. The Sun will also enter the same sign, i.e., Libra on 18 October. Simultaneously, Mercury will remain posited in this sign from the beginning of the month, and will then move on to Scorpio on 23 October. Soon afterwards, Venus will also enter Scorpio on 28 October. 

Let us now use Vedic Astrology to analyze the kundalis of the main parties, BJP and Congress, and take a look at the influence of the planets on them:

Bharatiya Janata Party


BJP: (6-4-1980; 11:40:00; New Delhi)


BJP Natal Chart

Major Points:


  • The ascendant sign of BJP is Gemini, while its moon sign is Scorpio. 
  • The three major planets, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn are all in retrograde motion.
  • In the third house of the kundali, i.e., in zodiac sign Leo, the planets Rahu, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn are in conjunction.
  • The Shani Sadesati is coming to an end.
  • The lord of the ascendant, Mercury and Ketu are in conjunction in the ninth house. 

Planetary Positions During Elections 2019


During the State Legislative Assembly Elections 2019, BJP’s kundali will have:

  • Dasha of Moon-Mars-Moon till 9 October 2019.
  • After this, dasha of Moon-Rahu-Rahu will begin, and persist until 1 January 2020.

Planetary Transits During Elections 2019


During the State Legislative Assembly Elections 2019, BJP’s kundali will have:

  • Saturn will transit to the second house from the natal Moon.
  • Jupiter is already posited in the natal moon sign, and will move towards the second house. 
  • Rahu will transit to the eighth house from the natal Moon.
  • Mars will be posited in the eleventh house from the natal Moon and will exhibit its influence.

BJP’s Performance & Status in The State Legislative Assembly Elections 2019


At the time of assembly elections 2019 in Maharashtra and Haryana, when they are being held and counted, in the kundali of BJP the major period of Moon and sub-period of Rahu will prevail. Moon is in the Jyeshta nakshatra which is a Gandmool nakshatra. However, the Lord of the Ascendant is Mercury that is posited in the ninth house forming a Raj Yoga, and the Moon is posited in the nakshatra of that very planet Mercury, the Lord of the fourth house and the Ascendant. Rahu is posited in the Magha nakshatra, over which Ketu has lordship, and is forming the Raj Yoga once again, while posited in the ninth house. On the other hand, Rahu is getting influenced while posited with Saturn, Mars, and Jupiter. 

In such a situation, it can be said that this election can help BJP achieve success and come into power. Yet, while its ally Shiv Sena will support BJP openly on one hand; on the other, it can also keep certain demands in front of the latter which may cause some problems for BJP. Saturn transiting in the second house from the moon sign and Jupiter already posited there are creating conditions that indicate a return to power for the party, however, they still need to be cautious in certain situations. BJP, with the help of its allies may return to power, yet, there can be a drop in its vote percentage, and they may even lose some seats as compared to previous elections.

Congress


Congress: (02-01-1978; 11:59:00; New Delhi)


(Congress Natal Chart)

Major Points:


  • The ascendant sign of Congress is Pisces, while its moon sign is Virgo. 
  • The three major planets, Saturn, Jupiter, and Mars are all in retrograde motion.
  • A combust Venus is posited in the tenth house of Sagittarius, with the Sun.
  • Mars is posited in the fifth house of Cancer, which is its debilitated sign.
  • The conjunction of Rahu and Moon is in the seventh house.

Planetary Positions During Elections 2019


During the State Legislative Assembly Elections 2019, Congress’s kundali will have:

  • Major period of Jupiter, sub-period of Saturn, and sub-sub period of Venus, which will persist until 1 January 2020.

Planetary Transits During Elections 2019


During the State Legislative Assembly Elections 2019, Congress’s kundali will have:

  • Saturn will transit to the fourth house from the natal Moon, over the natal Sun and Venus.
  • Jupiter will transit from the third house from the natal moon sign, and will move towards the fourth house. 
  • Rahu will transit to the tenth house from the natal Moon, over the natal Jupiter.
  • Mars will be posited in the natal Moon sign and will exhibit its influence.


Congress’s Performance & Status in The State Legislative Assembly Elections 2019


During the Maharashtra and Haryana assembly elections, the Congress party will be going through the Major period of Jupiter, sub-period of Saturn, and sub-sub-period of Venus. Jupiter, lord of the ascendant and tenth house in the kundli, occupies the fourth house and is completely aspecting the tenth house. Simultaneously, Saturn the lord of the eleventh and twelfth houses, is posited in the sixth house; while Venus, the lord of the third and eighth houses, is occupying in the tenth house. Jupiter is in the nakshatra of Mars, which is the lord of the ninth house in the kundali and is posited in its exalted sign, in the fifth house.

On the other hand, Saturn is in the nakshatra of Ketu which is in the ascendant, while a combust Venus is posited in the nakshatra of Ketu as well. Due to the transit of Saturn in the fourth house from the natal sign, there is a possibility that Congress may reap some benefits of its manipulation policy. However, its chances of success in forming a government are unlikely. There may be some discord in the party, and some Congress leaders may even join another party. The way the Congress has tried to align with Sharad Pawar's NCP, they may benefit from it in certain ways, yet it seems more unlikely that they will come into power.

Devendra Fadnavis


Many challenges in the assembly elections 2019 may cause obstacles in the path of Devendra Fadnavis, the Chief Minister of Maharashtra and the main contender of BJP-Shiv Sena. Coordinating with the Shiv Sena on the topic of sharing seats will be the first challenge for him.

Kundali Analysis For The State Legislative Assembly Elections 2019


In the kundali of Mr Devendra Fadnavis, during the assembly elections and when the result will be announced, the major period of Mercury, sub-period of Saturn, and sub-sub-period of Saturn will prevail. In his birth chart, Saturn is the lord of the seventh and eighth house, and is posited in the tenth house; while Mercury is the lord of the third and twelfth house, and is occupying the ascendant. The transits of Saturn and Jupiter from the natal moon sign, Aquarius are forming situations that are in his favor.

Devendra Fadnavis will have to make several efforts on a personal level and at the same time will have to make efforts so that his plans and schemes reach the public, effectively. Based on the planetary positions in his birth chart, it can be concluded that the upcoming times will be in his favor and he may be successful in continuing being in power. However, some problems will continue with the allies. In the coming time, when Saturn will transit in January, Shani Sadesati will begin for him. The Sadesati will bring him mental stress as well as some opponents, who may be associated with his allied parties. 

Manohar Lal Khattar: Short Analysis of Name Kundli 


Due to a lack of comprehensive birth details, we cannot discuss the birth chart of the present Chief Minister of Haryana, Manohar Lal Khattar. However, according to his name, the birth chart of zodiac sign Leo forms, where Saturn is transiting in the fifth house and Jupiter in the fourth house. It seems that a lot of people dislike him as Chief Minister, yet he will definitely get the benefit of having BJP in power in the Central Government and the state being close to the Central Government. Thus, there are good chances of him returning to power.

Conclusion


In addition to the aforementioned individuals and parties, we took a look at the other parties including the Aam Aadmi Party, Maharashtra Navnirman Sena, and some other major parties and contenders. From all this data, it can be concluded that the present ruling party of Maharashtra and Haryana, the Bharatiya Janata Party may benefit from the fact that the opposition is not united and they may return to power. Despite that, they are still likely to lose some seats and there are also indications that they can come up short on some traditional seats as well. 

Chances are, there will be a decline in the vote percentage for BJP, however, in HAryana specially the impact of BJP in the Central Government will be apparent. Moreover, keeping their recent policies concerning Pakistan in mind it can easily be said that the Bharatiya Janata Party may return to power, yet lose some seats. As a matter of fact, the ruling party will face defeat in some seat quite unexpectedly. 

On the contrary, Sharad Pawar's difficulties may only increase further, and the Congress will also suffer due to its weak strategies.
