Patna. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has assumed power at the centre for the third time in a row. On Sunday evening, 72 NDA MPs from across the country, including Narendra Modi, took oath as ministers. 10 MPs from Bihar and Jharkhand have got a place in the Modi cabinet. With this, the picture also became clear as to who all have become ministers from Bihar in PM Modi’s third term. Now, along with this, discussions have also intensified about the social equation of the ministers who have joined the Modi cabinet. Especially this time, special discussions are being held about the ministers from Bihar who are playing an important role in the NDA government.
Let us tell you, this time after Uttar Pradesh, the highest number of ministers, 8, have been made from Bihar. But, despite this, the activity regarding social equations has increased a lot in Bihar. As soon as the names of ministers from Bihar were clear in the Modi cabinet, there was a lot of talk about the caste equation of the ministers of Bihar, who are famous for caste politics. A full effort was made to balance the caste equations from Bihar in the Modi cabinet. In this, 2 from the extremely backward society, 2 Dalits, 2 Bhumihars, one Brahmin and one Yadav have been made ministers. That is, a full effort was made to balance the social equations. But, in the meantime, news of displeasure of some vocal castes of Bihar, which have a special influence on the elections, has also started coming.
Rajput: In the political corridors, the most resentment is being seen from the Rajput community. After Yadav, the maximum number of 7 MPs have been elected from the Rajput community in Bihar. But, not a single Rajput has been made a minister in the cabinet. It is being said that the resentment of the Rajput caste will have a big impact on the assembly elections as well.
Kushwaha: Kushwaha is the second most vocal caste in Bihar, whose four MPs have won. 2 Kushwaha MPs have won from NDA and 2 from India Alliance. But despite this, no Kushwaha MP from NDA has got a place in the cabinet. This time BJP and JDU have had to bear the brunt of not getting a single Kushwaha ticket from BJP. Their displeasure can also prove costly in the assembly.
Vaishya: In Bihar, the Vaishya community is known as an important caste that influences the electoral equation. But this time, no one from the Vaishya community has got a chance to join the Modi cabinet. Sanjay Jaiswal has reached the Parliament by winning the election for the fourth time in a row. In such a situation, the Vaishya community can also influence the assembly elections.
