Congress and BJP both suffered due to factions and groups and inspired by the best efforts of the leaders of both parties sources say the local leaders did not come on a single pitch. The Himachal government of BJP is suffering from anti-incumbency factors and factionalism has derailed the developmental works, source says. It’s history that no party has ruled the state continuously in two terms and this was in the favour of the Congress party but despite all the hard work of Ms Priyanka Gandhi seems Congress is not likely to make use of the factionalism of BJP and still on slippery ground source says. Agnihotri, the CM candidate from Congress also failed to consolidate the party position source says.
