The effect of Union Minister Amit Shah’s warning about the voting percentage is that voting in the third phase has been on par with the last Lok Sabha elections. But, the performance of the ministers has been weak in this period as well.
There are 11 ministers in the state government from 9 Lok Sabha seats in the third phase. Of these, 8 ministers did not match Shah’s performance. The polling in his assembly constituency has been less than the average polling in the Lok Sabha seat. This time the number of ATMs that performed well has increased. Of the 38 BJP MLAs, there are 19 MLAs in whose constituencies the vote has been higher than the average of the parliamentary seat.
In fact, Union Home Minister Amit Shah had held a meeting of top state leaders at the BJP office late in the evening on April 25, ahead of the second phase of polling. In the meeting, he had said that the ministers whose voting percentage will be less in their assembly constituencies will lose their ministerial posts. In return, those Members of Parliament will be made ministers, whose voting percentage will increase in their areas. However, Amit Shah did not say how many percent of the ministers may lose their jobs due to lower turnout.
The ministers who had less voting in their constituencies have cited many reasons for this. The MLAs who managed to get more votes say it is the result of the hard work of the workers. How many ministers are in the third period of the elections whose districts have less turnout and appear in the danger zone after Shah’s warning. read the report
Know first hand how the impact of Shah’s warning was…
The day Amit Shah warned about increasing the voting percentage, BJP leaders and workers started efforts to increase the voting percentage. The round of meetings started at the BJP office. BJP had decided to conduct voting awareness campaign on polling day.
The organization gave the responsibility to major leaders including the CM and State President that they will call the booth level workers in the morning. After this, these employees will call their lower level employees and motivate them to vote. BJP adopted the same strategy in all the nine seats where polling was held on May 7.
The result was that maximum voting took place between 9 am and 11 am. Finally, when the voting ended, this figure equaled the voting figure in the last election. However, if we look at the voting percentage on a total of 21 seats in the first, second and third stages, it is 5.66 percent less than the voting percentage in 2019.
Shah’s warning had no effect on ministers, MPs took it seriously
BJP sources say that during his visit, Shah clearly told Chief Minister Dr Mohan Yadav and State President VD Sharma and other leaders that the party MLAs were not active. The report card of each MLA will be made based on the results of the Lok Sabha elections.
On this basis his political future will be decided. Shah had also warned about ministers. The party had sent this message everywhere. In such a situation, polling test was conducted for a total of 49 BJP members out of 9 Lok Sabha seats in the third phase. Of these, 11 MLAs are ministers. The effect of this message was not very obvious on the ministers, but the ATM took it seriously.
Rajgarh MLA Amar Singh had solicited votes for the Rodmal Nagar candidate during the Lok Sabha elections, sitting on a horse as a groom. The polling in the Rajgarh Assembly was 2 per cent more than the average.
8 ministers in danger zone in Shah poll test, 3 safe
In the third stage, a voting test of 11 ministers was held. Of these, 8 ministers did not pass this test. Although 3 ministers performed better than expected. Among the ministers who failed the test, there are two each from Bhopal and Gwalior Lok Sabha seats.

Polling equal to average on Narayan seat as well
The seat of MLA from Biaora seat and the seat of Fisheries Welfare Minister Narayan Singh Panwar saw 75 per cent polling which was just 0.39 per cent less than the average. Actually, Amit Shah was fully focused on the Rajgarh seat, and because of that MLAs and ministers gave their full strength to vote here.
Vidisha: Highest polling in Budhni, more than average in Ichhawar
The highest voting percentage in Vidisha Lok Sabha seat was 81.54 per cent in Budhni. Shivraj Singh Chauhan is the MLA from here. On an average, 4.17 percent more polling took place in Ichhawar.

Voted more than the average in the fields of 19 MLAs in the third phase
In the third phase, 19 out of 38 BJP MPs have passed this voting test. In the districts of these Members of Parliament, the turnout has been higher than the average in terms of voting in the Lok Sabha constituencies. In this, Sehore MLA Sudesh Rai is number one.
Voting in the Sehore Assembly seat was 12 per cent more than the average voting in the parliamentary constituency. The weakest performance among the ATMs was that of Bhagwan Das Sabnani, MLA from Bhopal South West seat. Voting in his area was 10 per cent less than average.
Now what do ministers and members of parliament say about less and more voting?
Harsud MLA and Tribal Department Minister Vijay Shah has had the weakest performance among ministers. Regarding this, Vijay Shah says that there has been less voting due to marriage and heat. Nevertheless, he says that there is a huge difference in the voting in the Lok Sabha elections and the Assembly elections.
Highest and lowest polling among Members of Parliament in Bhopal Lok Sabha seat
The least voting among Members of Parliament has occurred in the constituency of South West Member of Parliament Bhopal Bhagwan Das Sabnani. He says that due to the development of a smart city, more workers have moved to other assembly constituencies, but his name is there in the voter list. The highest polling took place in Sehore MLA Sudesh Rai’s seat. They say the workers have worked hard.
Expert said – Shah’s voting test formula is wrong
Senior journalist Dinesh Gupta does not agree with Amit Shah’s voting test. He says that Shah said this in the meeting to boost the enthusiasm of the MPs and to curb the ministers, but the increase or decrease in the voting percentage in the elections cannot be related to the performance of the minister or’ r MLA.
The credibility of 7 ministers is at stake in the fourth phase of the elections.
Now the voting will be held on eight Lok Sabha seats in the fourth phase on May 13. All these seats are from the Malwa-Nimar region. 7 ministers come from here in the national government. Indore leaders have already been warned about increased polling in Malwa Nimar seats. On Sunday, May 5, a meeting of the top leaders was held at the BJP office in Indore where discussions were held on increasing the voting percentage.
