With the change of power in the politics of Bihar, the roots of familyism are also getting deeper. If seen, at present, many politicians who came out of the JP movement are going on a break. In such a situation, the exercise is also going on in full swing to get the right and better place for their sons. In such a situation, the projection of Nitish Kumar as PM is going to change the tone of Bihar’s politics. RJD supremo Lalu Prasad is trying to hand over the reins of the state to his son Tejashwi. Former minister Narendra Singh has installed his son Sumit Singh as a minister. Jagdanand Singh has installed his son Sudhakar Singh as Agriculture Minister. Going a step ahead in this episode, Jitan Ram Manjhi said at the inauguration of the rubber dam that if Nitishji becomes the PM, Tejashwi Babu will become the CM. It is a matter that while taking care of politics, he could not say that the Deputy CM’s seat will become vacant as soon as Tejashwi becomes CM. As a Dalit, his son Santosh Suman becomes the first right. Although he gave his message in gestures, he got trolled on the political and social stage.
Manjhi specializes in politics of interest
In fact, the number of Dalit votes for which Jitan Ram Manjhi does politics is about four percent. The areas dominated by their caste include Magadha, Kosi, Seemanchal, some Lok Sabha and assembly constituencies. In Bihar politics, they reap this crop. Jitan Ram Manjhi moved ahead from the politics of Congress and did politics with JDU. Became a minister, even became the chief minister. But as soon as he came down from the throne, a separate party was formed. Here, if we talk about opportunism, then fight the 2019 Lok Sabha elections with RJD. Lalu also gave a post of MLC to accompany him in the Lok Sabha elections. But he did not stay here either and came again in the NDA in the 2020 assembly elections. On behalf of Nitish ji, Hindustani Awam Morcha fielded in the elections. Won four seats. Made his son a minister but once again joined hands with RJD after taking advantage.
Manjhi has been raising the issue of Dalit Deputy CM
When Jitan Ram Manjhi had formed the Hum Party by separating from JDU, he made a big announcement. Manjhi had assured that if his government comes, there will be a deputy CM from a Dalit and a Muslim. In the later days, when he joined the politics of alliance, he kept advocating for a deputy CM from Dalit. By the way, it is also important for luck to prevail in politics. Perhaps sensing this, Jitan Ram Manjhi has sung the melody of the Deputy CM.
