Himachal Pradesh Election 2022: The battle is between the state's ruling BJP, which wants to keep power despite the trend of an alternate party taking power every five years since 1982, and the Congress, which is counting on the 'ten guarantees' listed in its manifesto to win them over. The Aam Aadmi Party is looking to make a name for itself in the state and is thus contesting all 68 seats on its own. The challenge for the ruling BJP will be to defy anti-incumbency and reverse the alternate government's trend.
