Eleven Big Losses in 2019 depicting the demolition of family and party strongholds

As Modi juggernaut rolled on, many big names and many big family strongholds fell by the wayside.

This was a ringing demonstration of the beginning of the end of dynastic politics and the politics of entitlement so strongly entrenched so far in the Indian system.

Without doubt, the biggest name that fell this poll season was none other than Congress President and the scion himself when he had to bow out before Smriti Irani from a constituency which had been a family stronghold since 1967.

And that too from a constituency which had been a Congress bastion for years.
