North India Statesman
News India Live, Digital Desk: Bihar’s politics and ‘miracle’ have an old relationship. Even great pundits are unable to predict what will happen here. We all know that Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has always been strictly against ‘nepotism’. He often keeps taunting Lalu Prasad Yadav and Congress for taking his family forward. But the scene in Patna today JDU (JD-U) office It has raised a big question mark on all these things.
‘Nishant Kumar’ suddenly came into discussion
Some such posters have been put up outside the party office in Patna, which have attracted everyone’s attention. CM Nitish Kumar’s son in these posters Nishant Kumar There is a picture of and it has been clearly demanded that he should now be given the command of the party. Those who put up the posters did not hide anything, they clearly wrote that “Bring Nishant, save JDU” or talked about handing over the youth leadership to him.
Why is this incident important?
See, Nishant Kumar is not like the children of common leaders. Till date he has never been seen giving speeches on stage or attending rallies. He is an engineer and believes more in spirituality. He always remained far away from the glare of politics. In such a situation, suddenly putting up his poster is no small thing.
Demand of workers or a well-thought-out strategy?
Two questions are running in the minds of political experts:
- Disillusionment of workers: Are the party workers now looking for a face after Nitish Kumar who is young and whom people can consider trustworthy? Does he feel that JDU also needs a ‘young face’ to take on RJD’s Tejashwi Yadav?
- Political Testing: Many times such posters are put up to gauge the atmosphere in politics. To see what will be the reaction of the public and the party if Nishant is brought forward.
The opposition got the spice
Obviously, with this poster game the opposition parties have got the issue in their hands. Nitish Kumar, who till yesterday used to call others ‘familyists’, if his son enters politics, then the arrows of his opponents will become more sharp. However, till now no statement has come from either Nitish Kumar or Nishant.
the picture of the future is blurry
At present it is too early to say that Nishant Kumar is coming into politics, but if smoke is rising then there must be a fire somewhere. These posters on the streets of Patna are not just pieces of paper, but can be an indication of the future of Bihar. Will an engineer really carry the legacy of ‘Sushasan Babu’? Only time will tell.
