For Bihar elections 2025, BJP can give opportunity to new, young faces instead of many old leaders. The goal is to win weak seats and improve the image of the party. The ticket of MLAs with 75+ age and rebel attitude may be cut.
Patna: As soon as Bihar assembly elections are 2025 close, the BJP has made up its mind to make major changes in its organization and electoral strategy. According to party sources, in an important meeting chaired by Union Home Minister Amit Shah last week, the party will indicate that the party will reduce the trust of old leaders and field new and young faces. The move aims to present a new image of the party among voters and to avoid weak or disputed MLAs.
New faces will compete
According to sources, this time the BJP will not fully trust the organization or local committee to decide its candidates. On the instructions of Amit Shah and other senior leaders, the party is planning to field new and young leaders in some seats. Its aim is to strengthen the party’s image and grip among voters and improve election results.
Last seal in Seemanchal, Bettiah and Araria
Sources reveal that a final decision has been taken in seats like Seemanchal, Bettiah, Samastipur and Araria. The party is thinking of taking out new faces in these seats so that anti -incumbency waves and local disputes can be dealt with. The BJP believes that the grip of old leaders in these districts has weakened and new candidates can have more impact.
Nearly win-defeat areas will also be changed
In the last assembly election, there have been 39 seats where the difference of victory and defeat was less than 10,000 votes. The BJP’s victory in seats like Ara, Barhra, Munger, Begusarai, Badhwar, Hajipur, Amanore and Parihar was extremely low. The party is now considering the plan to field new candidates in these seats so that the election results are benefited.
Changes in the districts facing defeat
The BJP is also focusing on more than 18 seats where it lost the last time by 10,000 votes. This includes seats like Kalyanpur, Kishanganj, Siwan and Bhagalpur, where the difference was about 1000 votes. There was very little difference of defeat on seats like Kurahani, Bakhri and Dehri. The party believes that new and more impressive faces can change the situation in these areas.
Consideration of entry of pre -and existing MPs
The BJP is considering fielding some former and current MPs in elections. In addition, the party is planning to field some leaders who are allegedly said to be angry. The aim behind this is that the party does not suffer loss due to rebellion or protest.
Which MLA’s ticket is in danger
The BJP is preparing to opt for those MLAs and leaders, whose rebel attitude has been seen in the past. Especially those MLAs who protested at the time of Nitish Kumar joining NDA in January 2024. Apart from this, the tickets of MLAs who are 75 years or around, are also under threat to their tickets. The party believes that the party’s performance will be better by the youth and active leaders entering the electoral fray.
Review of preparations in Election Commission and Organization
The BJP has also reviewed its organization and election operations. More than 150 seats were discussed in Amit Shah’s meeting and the final announcement of tickets will be made only after the election schedule is published. The party wants to ensure that the candidates are strong and the party is not harmed by any kind of rebellion or opposition.
BJP’s big bet
Before the Bihar assembly elections 2025, the BJP’s strategy clearly shows that the party does not want to win the election by depending on the old leaders. The BJP is trying to strengthen its hold in the assembly elections through new and young faces, strategic seat selection and organizational strength. According to party sources, the final announcement of tickets will be made in the next few weeks and this change can decide the political direction of Bihar.
