Women in Gujarat decisively voted against Sonia Gandhi%u2019s propaganda %u2013 Bjp to register a landslide victory Parth Sharma Dec. 13, 2007
The negative propaganda of Sonia Gandhi and the Congress party backfired. The women of Gujarat voted decisively for Narendra Modi and his party BJP in the election.
The flamboyant Chief Minister portrayed an image of political purifier added to the charismatic character. It is not just the urban women from the cities that made the difference but also the women form the villages and the countryside that lined up to vote for BJP.
The male voters has fallen by nearly 3 percentage points to 62%, and at the same time the percentage of women has gone down marginally to 57%. The gap between male and female voters, which was 7% in 2002, has shrunk to 4% in 2007. That 3% gap reduction has provided the massive boost to the BJP candidates.
