People are in dilemma due to tough competition
The wind has been in favor of SP in Yadav dominated Karhal seat, but this time BJP played its trump card by fielding Anujesh Singh, a relative of Saifai family and also from Yadav community. With the help of Anujesh, BJP tried its best to steal the Yadav vote. According to the trend, Anujesh was successful in this to a great extent. In such a situation, there was a close contest between both SP and BJP. This is the reason why people are not able to decide who will win. That is why they are eagerly waiting for the counting of votes.
