Dadri assembly constituency is regarded to be the most significant seat in the Gautambudhnagar district. As the elections approach, the situation in this seat has begun to clear up. Candidates for the BSP, SP-RLD, Congress, and AAP are all mulling a battle with the BJP candidate. Between the BSP and SP-RLD candidates, the BJP candidate is battling for the second spot. However, the people of Dadri will decide on February 10. The BJP candidate's task in 2017 is to avoid repeating history. Within the BJP, there is considerable hostility to the candidate. If the BJP repeats the feat of 2017, the credit would go to Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

There has been much resistance to the functioning of BJP MLA Tejpal Nagar during the previous four and a half years. They have failed to address the concerns of farmers, business people, and Grano BEST flat purchasers. Both parties have given the builders greater clout than governments in resolving the buyer problem.

Additionally, there is much hostility at the BSP-SP candidate among Lark apartment purchasers. Although the politicians for these two parties are too great lengths to elicit tears of anguish, they are attempting to get votes by demonstrating that if purchasers believe them, they will take ownership of their apartment and receive their registry. BSP-SP applicants are unable to articulate a strategy for resolving these issues. In this case, the purchasers are not burdened with these alluring promises.

Dadri assembly seat contains around two lakh Gurjar voters, 65 thousand Brahmins, 67 thousand SC voters, 66 thousand Muslims, 40 thousand Vaishyas, 50 thousand Thakurs, 15 thousand Yadavs, 16 thousand Jats, six thousand Kayasthas, and approximately 70 thousand OBC voters. Now, it remains to be seen if candidates from the Gurjar community be fielded by all parties. Thus, if the Gujjars' votes become polarised, the BJP may profit.

Dadri assembly seat was formerly called after Bulandshahar's Sikandrabad West. Ramchandra Vikal, a freedom warrior, was elected as an MLA here in the first elections conducted following independence. Dadri was established as a distinct assembly constituency in 1956. Satyavati Rawal became the state's first female legislator in the 1957 legislative elections. Ramchandra Vikal of the Congress, Tej Singh Bhati of the Janata Party and Congress, and Mahendra Singh Bhati of the Janata Dal were all elected to the House of Representatives three times each. Congress' Vijaypal Bhati, the BJP's Nawab Singh Nagar, and the BSP's Satveer Gurjar all become MLAs twice. Satyawati Rawal of the Congress and Samir Bhati of the Janata Dal both made their first appearances in the Assembly. Previously, Noida was included in the Dadri assembly constituency. Noida was designated as a distinct assembly seat from Dadri after delimitation in 2012.

Tejpal Singh Nagar, the sitting MLA who was elected from the BJP in 2017, is back in the race for the second time; he now confronts the prospect of repeating history. This time, farmer leader Manveer Bhati of the BSP is up against Rajkumar Bhati of the SP-RLD coalition, Deepak Bhati of the Congress, Chotiwala of the Congress, and Sanjay Chanchi of the AAP. This district encompasses both urban and rural areas. One and a half lakh Greater Noida West votes may make a significant difference in the loss or success of a party's nominee in the Dadri assembly seat.

Despite this, SP-RLD candidate Raj Kumar Bhati is campaigning on the topic of Gujjars being the tallest leader and the Emperor Mihir Bhoj monument dispute, despite the fact that SP has yet to create an account in the Dadri assembly seat. In the Dadri seat, voters from Greater Noida and Greater Noida West have played havoc with the caste equation. The majority of the city's voter is outside. Their vote is caste-neutral, favoring growth and jobs. Thus, foreign votes continue to be a significant hurdle for the BSP, SP, and Congress. Dadri assembly has a total of 586889 voters. Male votes total 322,670, while female voters total 264144. On February 10th, around six lakh people will determine who will win the seat.
