But the party candidates failed to win many of them, said a party leader. “In around 20 seats, the national leaders did not pay any heed to the requests of the state leadership,” said a source. If the trends turn out to be results, it will be seen as the reflection of a sentiment against the BJP in the state and the yearning for change across the state. There are about 2.5 lakh government employees in the state, and out of them 1.5 lakh are covered under the New Pension Scheme. Many voters had pointed out that Thakur was not able to find his feet in the state unit which has witnessed a tussle between the Nadda camp and those close to Prem Kumar Dhumal. A source close to Thakur blamed the national leadership’s strategies to keep out a number of “party leaders who worked hard with Thakur for five years” in the ticket distribution.
