Bihar Politics: Before the assembly elections in Bihar, all political parties are trying to repair their equations. The Congress, who contested elections with RJD in Bihar, is also trying to put full strength this time. The journey has been taken out by the party. Meanwhile, the party has changed the state Congress president by playing a big political bets.
The top leadership of the party has now given the command of the party in the state to Rajesh Kumar, the leader of the Dalit community, in place of Akhilesh Prasad Singh, who belongs to the Bhumihar fraternity. Through this move taken by the party, an attempt has been made to put a door on the Dalit voters of the state. It is believed that the party has taken this big step to do social equations in Bihar. It is considered to be a step taken towards strengthening the political land of Congress in Bihar.
What is the purpose of Congress’s Dalit card
Before this year’s assembly elections in Bihar, the steps taken by the Congress leadership are considered to be a strategy to play Dalit cards. In Bihar elections, the caste equation has already been showing great impact and in such a situation, the Congress has taken this step to help Dalit voters. Rajesh Kumar, who was made the state Congress president, is currently an MLA from Kutumba Assembly seat in Bihar and has been identified as a strong leader of Dalit society.
Rajesh Kumar has been considered close to Rahul Gandhi. There is also a remarkable thing that Bhakta Charan Das, former in -charge of Congress in Bihar, had also recommended Rajesh Kumar to be the state president before Akhilesh Prasad Singh, but at that time the top leadership of the Congress ignored his recommendation and handed over the command of the Congress to Akhilesh Prasad Singh. Before the assembly elections, the Congress has made a big change in its strategy through Rajesh Kumar’s coronation.
Why did Congress make Dalit president
There are about 17 percent of Dalit voters in Bihar and the Congress has now put these voters on their eyes. Bihar has 243 assembly seats and the role of Dalit voters in almost all assembly constituencies is considered very important. In Bihar, Union Minister Jitan Ram Manjhi and Chirag Paswan have been considered as the axis of Dalit voters.
The two leaders are currently with the NDA and in such a situation, the step of making a Dalit president from the Congress can prove to be a big impact. If the Congress candidates get support from the Dalit society, then the party can gain great strength.
Why did the command take away from Akhilesh Prasad Singh
The state president was also expected to change since the state in -charge was changed from the Congress. In fact, Akhilesh Prasad Singh’s tuning was not able to sit with the state in -charge Krishna Allavaru. Differences were exposed on several issues between the two. Along with this, Akhilesh Prasad Singh was also said to be angry with the importance of Kanhaiya Kumar in Bihar by the Congress. Kanhaiya Kumar is in the lead role in the journey ‘Job, Job, Exodus Roko’, which was taken out by the Congress. Akhilesh was angry with Kanhaiya Kumar without giving prominence to his opinion.
Along with this, complaints of factionalism and lack of coordination in the Congress also reached the top leadership. Akhilesh Prasad Singh has been considered close to RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav. This time the Congress has kept an eye on more seats this time and in such a situation it was believed that due to Akhilesh Prasad Singh, the party would not be able to put proper pressure on the RJD leadership. Political experts believe that due to all these reasons, the Congress leadership has decided to change the state president.
Congress also gave a big signal to RJD
Since the 90s in Bihar, the Congress has been identified as the backward party of RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav. Since then, the party has been dancing at the behest of Lalu Yadav, but the Congress high command now wants to end this connection. The decisions of the party have proved that it is no longer going to dance on Lalu Yadav’s fingers.
It started with the appointment of the state in -charge by the party. The party made Krishna Allavaru the state in -charge by removing Mohan Prakash, who is considered close to the Lalu camp. After his appointment, Allavaru has not yet arrived to attend Lalu’s court. Now the state president has also been replaced, who has been considered close to Lalu Yadav.
With the change of the state Congress president, it has also become clear that now the party is not going to bow down in the matter of seat sharing. It will no longer prove to prove to be easy for RJD chief Lalu Yadav and Tejashwi. The Congress will also stand in front of the RJD with full force.
