22 Muslim candidates succeed in Lok Sabha Elections 2019

by Abbas Adil

The final results of the 17th elections in the lower house of India-Lok Sabha have been announced, under which the Indian Jinnah Party (BJP) got a clear edge.

So far as per final results, the BJP has got seats up to 350 and it is in the position to create a single government this time.
The BJP’s popularity came to see this increase compared to the previous elections, but it is surprising that even one Muslim candidate of the BJP could not succeed.

This year, less Muslims have been selected for the Lok Sabha than 2014, but it is believed that till the final announcements the number of Muslim candidates can increase.
According to the Indian Express, this time, more than 25 Muslim candidates are likely to succeed for the Lok Sabha, but till now 22 Muslim candidates have been finalized.
The report states that the representation of Muslims in the Lok Sabha is less than the proportion of their population, the proportion of Muslims’s population in India is more than 14% and representing the population ratio in the Lok Sabha is also 5% lower than the population ratio Is.

The BJP had tickets to 6 Muslim candidates all over India and in Jammu and Kashmir under the control, but all their candidates had to face defeat.

Of the 22 Muslim members who are successful in the election, there are only two women and two women have succeeded in the state of West Bengal.

Owaisi, a Muslim leader from the state Haryana constituency Hyderabad, has been constantly elected for the Lok Sabha, besides Farooq Abdullah as well as Jammu and Kashmir.

If more and more Muslim candidates succeed in the final results of the Lok Sabha, they will still be the highest number of Muslims in the Lok Sabha, and if no more candidate is successful then this time the number of Muslim members less than 2014 Will be.
In the last elections, 23 Muslim members had been successful in all over India.
