00:00 Welcome to the 9th episode of Poll Pulse on One India News where we bring you the latest
00:14 updates from the ongoing Lok Sabha elections.
00:18 As the nation gears up for the second phase of voting, polling officials are seen leaving
00:23 for election duty.
00:25 With the initial pace witnessing a turnout of approximately 64%, anticipation runs high
00:32 for the upcoming phase.
00:35 Stay tuned as we delve into the latest developments in the election and political sphere ahead
00:40 of the second phase.
00:42 Phase 2 Lok Sabha Elections 2024 will witness polls in 89 constituencies spread across 13
00:52 states and union territories.
00:54 In a noteworthy development, all 20 Lok Sabha seats in Kerala are set to go to polls, making
01:01 it a crucial battleground state.
01:04 Additionally, eight constituencies in Uttar Pradesh are poised for voting, adding to the
01:09 electoral dynamics of the second phase.
01:12 The constituencies participating in this phase include various regions from Assam, Bihar,
01:18 Chhattisgarh, J&K, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Tirupura, Uttar Pradesh
01:25 and West Bengal, among others.
01:27 Let's take a closer look at some of the key candidates contesting in the second phase.
01:34 Congress leader Rahul Gandhi seeks re-election from Wayanad, while Congress head Shashi Tharoor
01:40 faces stiff competition from BJP's Rajiv Chandrasekhar in Thiruvananthapuram.
01:46 The election schedule proceeds as follows.
01:50 Phase 3 on May 7, Phase 4 on May 13, Phase 5 on May 20, Phase 6 on May 25 and Phase 7
01:59 on June 1.
02:00 Finally, mark your calendars for the counting of votes on June 4.
02:05 With each phase, the excitement and stakes heighten, shaping the future course of Indian
02:11 democracy.
02:16 Sources indicate that Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra are likely to file their nomination
02:22 papers from Uttar Pradesh's Amethi and Raibareli constituencies, respectively.
02:29 Rahul Gandhi, who is already contesting from Kerala's Wayanad constituency, faced speculation
02:35 about filing from Amethi, where he previously contested and lost to BJP's Smriti Irani.
02:42 The potential entry of Priyanka Gandhi Vadra into the Lok Sabha elections from Raibareli
02:48 would mark her poll debut following the footsteps of her mother, Sonia Gandhi, who has moved
02:54 to the Rajya Sabha.
02:56 The political landscape in both Amethi and Raibareli, one strongholds of the Congress
03:01 party, had seen shifts, particularly with Smriti Irani's victory over Rahul Gandhi
03:07 in Amethi during the 2019 elections.
03:11 However, Rahul's previous win against Irani in 2014 underscores the historical significance
03:18 of the constituency.
03:20 In Raibareli, Sonia Gandhi's comfortable victory over the BJP's Dinesh Pratap Singh in the
03:26 previous elections highlights the enduring support for the Congress party in the region.
03:32 Speculation surrounding Rahul and Priyanka's candidacies is rife, with discussions slated
03:38 to take place in Delhi following the Wayanad polling.
03:42 Additionally, plans for their visit to Ayodhya are under consideration, though no official
03:47 confirmation has been issued yet.
03:52 The Election Commission of India (ECI) has issued notices to Prime Minister Narendra
03:57 Modi, Congress Chief Mallika Arjun Kharge and Member of Parliament Rahul Gandhi, seeking
04:04 responses to complaints of violations of the Model Code of Conduct (MCC) by Monday 11 am.
04:12 These notices underscore the necessity for campaign speeches of star campaigners to adhere
04:18 to a higher threshold of compliance.
04:21 The notices follow PM Modi's comments at an election rally in Rajasthan, where he suggested
04:27 that Congress intended to redistribute public wealth to Muslims.
04:32 Sparking a political row and drawing criticism from opposition leaders, Mallika Arjun Kharge
04:38 labelled the remarks as "hate speech" and accused PM Modi of lowering the dignity of
04:44 political discourse.
04:46 The notice to BJP Chief J P Nata, citing representations from Congress, CPI and CPI-ML, directs him
04:54 to ensure high standards of political discourse among all star campaigners.
05:00 Meanwhile, the notice to Kharge refers to a complaint against Rahul Gandhi's speech
05:06 in Kerala, where he was accused of making derisive remarks against PM Modi.
05:13 In a surprising turn of events, Bihar-based YouTuber Manish Kashyap, who faced controversy
05:20 over alleged fake videos last year, has now joined the BJP.
05:25 Kashyap, known for his YouTube channel Manish Kashyap - Son of Bihar, with 8.75 million
05:32 subscribers, announced in Delhi, accompanied by BJP's Delhi MP Manoj Tiwari.
05:38 Kashyap, who was arrested for circulating alleged fake videos depicting attacks on Bihari
05:44 migrants in Tamil Nadu, expressed gratitude towards the BJP for their support during his
05:51 ordeal.
05:52 He cited his mother's admiration for PM Narendra Modi as a driving factor behind his decision
05:59 to join the party.
06:01 This development underscores the intersection of social media influence and political participation
06:07 in contemporary India as individuals like Manish Kashyap navigate the transition from
06:14 digital activism to on-the-ground political engagement.
06:30 In a statement, he said, "I am proud to say that I have joined the BJP because I have
06:58 been removed from the National Assembly.
