As Chhattisgarh approaches Assembly elections next month, the opposition BJP is focused on winning the support of the tribal population, a significant influence on past election outcomes. The BJP faced a setback in tribal-dominated seats in the 2018 state polls, winning only a few of the 29 Scheduled Tribe (ST)-reserved seats. With Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, and BJP chief J.P. Nadda holding rallies in tribal areas and launching Parivartan Yatras from tribal pockets, the party aims to woo tribal voters. The ruling Congress won 25 out of 29 ST-reserved seats in 2018 and hopes to secure more this time. Tribal voters play a crucial role in determining the government in Chhattisgarh.
