The political temperature in Gujarat is rising well ahead of the 2027 Assembly elections, with the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) signaling an aggressive push in the state. AAP leader Anurag Dhanda has asserted that the upcoming election will be highly competitive, claiming that his party is steadily emerging as a strong alternative to the ruling BJP.
Anurag Dhanda: Survey Indicates Growing AAP Presence in Gujarat
Citing findings from a recent survey titled Pulse of Gujarat 2026, Anurag Dhanda said that AAP’s influence in the state has expanded significantly. According to the survey, the party is gaining public support and positioning itself as a credible challenger in Gujarat’s political landscape. Dhanda emphasised that AAP will contest the 2027 Assembly elections with double the strength and determination.
AAP Positions Itself as People’s Voice
Sharing his political assessment, Dhanda stated that the BJP’s dominance in Gujarat for nearly three decades continued largely due to the absence of a strong alternative. He alleged that the Congress failed to effectively challenge the BJP, creating space for AAP to step in as the voice of the people. He added that the latest survey reflects a clear shift in voter sentiment toward AAP.
Vote Share Signals Tough Electoral Battle
The survey reportedly suggests that AAP has secured a vote share close to 25 percent, indicating a significant rise compared to previous elections. Political observers believe this could make AAP a decisive factor in the 2027 Assembly polls, potentially leading to a triangular contest and a tougher fight for the BJP.
Clear Signals Ahead of 2027 Gujarat Elections
With strong claims and supportive survey data, Anurag Dhanda’s statement is being seen as an early declaration of AAP’s intent to reshape Gujarat politics. As parties begin preparations well in advance, the 2027 Gujarat Assembly election is expected to witness an intense and closely watched political battle.
