Yogi is coming to ask for votes of Vivek Thakur
This time, Rajya Sabha MP Vivek Thakur, son of senior BJP leader Dr CP Thakur, is in the electoral fray from Nawada Lok Sabha. Yogi Adityanath is coming to ask for votes for him. The candidate from RJD is Shravan Kushwaha. This time in the Lok Sabha elections, Lalu Prasad Yadav has tried to bring Koeri votes to his side by giving ticket to Shravan Kushwaha from Nawada Lok Sabha seat. On the other hand, an attempt was made to break into the vote bank of Kurmi caste by giving ticket to Kumari Anita, wife of Nawada’s strongman Ashok Mahato, on Munger Lok Sabha seat.
Nawada seat in NDA’s account for last 15 years
Let us tell you that BJP has registered its victory in Nawada Lok Sabha constituency four times. In the last election, Nawada seat was given to NDA constituent LJP, in which Chandan Singh from LJP won the election. This time this seat has again come into BJP’s account. Bhola Singh from BJP in 2009 and fire brand leader Giriraj Singh in 2014, Chandan Singh from LJP won the election in 2019. BJP wants to win the elections on this seat at any cost. This seat has been reserved for the BJP candidate.
Vinod Yadav is contesting independent elections after resigning from the party.
Here, Vinod Yadav, who was the state general secretary of RJD from Nawada, has resigned from the party and is contesting the elections as an independent. Vinod Yadav is getting open support from two RJD MLAs. Shravan Kushwaha’s troubles increased due to the rebellious attitude of two RJD MLAs. Let us tell you that Vinod Yadav, who is contesting the elections as an independent, is the brother of former minister Rajballabh Prasad Yadav and brother-in-law of RJD’s Nawada MLA Vibha Devi, while one of his nephews, Ashok Kumar, is a Legislative Councilor from Nawada. Apart from these, Vinod Yadav is getting the support of many District Council members and heads including RJD MLA Prakash Veer, District Council President Pushpa Rajvanshi, District Council Vice President Nisha Chaudhary. In such a situation, the contest on Nawada Lok Sabha seat became very interesting. Here, Bhojpuri and Magahi singer Gunjan Singh is contesting the Lok Sabha elections for the first time as an independent candidate, who will cut into Vivek Thakur’s votes somewhere.
