Before the Bihar Assembly Elections 2025, the Vikas Human Party has made the reservation of Nishad Samaj a major issue. Before PM Modi’s visit, the question arises that when will the Nishad of Bihar get reservation?
With the Bihar assembly elections approaching 2025, social and political issues have also rapidly raised. In such a situation, Mukesh Sahni’s Developing Human Party (VIP) has prominently kept the reservation of Nishad Samaj prominently in the election agenda. Before Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Bihar today, VIP national spokesperson Dev Jyoti raised the question that when will the Nishad of Bihar get reservation?
Reservation of Nishad in Adhar for a long time
Nishad society is considered an important social group in Bihar political scenario. The voice of this class with a population of about 5.5 percent in Bihar has been continuously gaining momentum in the demand for reservation for many decades. Dev Jyoti challenged Prime Minister Modi and the BJP government that reservation has been given to Nishads in other states, but Nishad of Bihar is still struggling for this constitutional right.
Dev Jyoti’s Tanj- What is the crime of Nishad of Bihar?
VIP spokesperson Dev Jyoti asked a big question, “Prime Minister, you are welcome to Bihar, but when will you give reservation to Nishad?” He said that it is a matter of stepfather that Nishad has been raising voice for reservation for so many years, but the solution is not coming out. He warned that the Nishad society will answer this time in the election to the NDA and will make them away from power.
Increasing political importance of Nishad vote
The role of Nishad in the 2020 assembly elections was clearly seen when the Vikas Human Party (VIP) won four seats and showed its hold. The VIP headed by Mukesh Sahni has now tried to strengthen the Nishad vote bank by being part of the Grand Alliance. Its impact can be decisive in the 2025 election as many districts of Bihar are more numbered as well as socio-economic backward classes.
PM Modi’s visit to Bihar and Nishad reservation
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is visiting Purnia district of Seemanchal region of Bihar today. During this period, development projects worth about 40 thousand crores will be announced and inaugurated. The BJP is trying to woo the voters of Seemanchal through the gift of this development. On the other hand, VIP has increased the election temperature by focusing the reservation case.
Nishad Samaj of political equations of Bihar
The Nishad community in Bihar has had to struggle to create a collective identity amid political conflicts for many years. This society has now become a political force and its vote bank proves to be decisive for any alliance. Due to this, the claim of political parties on Nishad reservation and their reaction determines the direction of election.
