Now that the results of the municipal councils and town panchayats are out, a lot of political meanings can be found in them.
For instance, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) won the maximum number of councils, seats, and even directly elected presidents, which shows BJP’s demonetised policy as being accepted by the people. This analysis falls by the wayside when the number of such gains are smaller than the victories of the BJP, Congress, and NCP added up — they all have opposed demonetisation.
BJP could well use this as a kind of public opinion in favour of demonetisation, a kind of a mini-referendum in a major state ruled by it. But that would be twisting the statistics, seeking comfort in the fact that it has not won the majority of the council and majority of councillors. By glossing over it, a perception would be sought to be conveyed that despite hardships of not getting speedy replacement of currencies which are now not legal tender.
