The actual Operation Lotus was began by BS Yediyurappa in Karnataka, when he received the resignations of Congress MLAs one after the other and fashioned nearly all of his first authorities by making them contest the elections on BJP ticket. Later, BJP adopted it in several methods at many locations. In the case of Rajya Sabha MPs in West Bengal, it’s being adopted in precisely the identical method because it was finished in Karnataka or Odisha. Three Rajya Sabha MPs of Trinamool Congress resigned as quickly because the BJP authorities was fashioned within the state. The Election Commission issued separate by-election notifications for all three seats. Separate notifications imply that there will be separate elections for the three seats and 145 votes will be required to win every seat.
Obviously the ruling BJP within the state will win all three seats. It can also be thought-about virtually sure that the three MPs who resigned from Trinamool will be given again BJP tickets and after profitable, they will change into BJP MPs. The final date for nomination is until 14th July. It is believed that BJP will give tickets to Sukhendu Shekhar Roy, Sushmita Deb and Prakash Chik Badaik. Similarly, in Odisha, three MPs of Biju Janata Dal had been made to resign one after the other and so they had been made MPs from BJP. After profitable all three seats of Bengal, BJP’s seats within the Upper House will enhance to 117, that’s, it will be solely six seats wanting majority by itself. With its allies it has to succeed in 161 seats to have a two-thirds majority. She has reached round 100 and fifty.
