The outcomes in Banka are indicative of the high organisational height and voter following of BJP in the constituency especially with Mandal recurring candidacy. With the demographic set up, i.e. the Yadav (Ahir) group which constitutes more than 22% of the voters, the opposition parties like RJD have a task to expand their reach to other groups beyond their Muslim Yadav vote bank. Furthermore, even though the region has had its problems on Naxal roots in the past, development, infrastructure, law and order, and rural agricultural issues would continue playing a crucial role in voter behaviour in future. The strength of the BJP at present implies that unless there are radical changes such as discontent on issues or a change of alliances the status quo might prevail in the future in Banka in the next elections.
