Bharatiya Janata Party in Jharkhand is making efforts to put its house in order. Keeping in mind the loss caused by the rebellion or resentment of party leaders in many states, senior party leaders are engaged in manouvtal. Angry leaders are being persuaded and leaders who have gone away from the party are being brought back and given important responsibilities in the organization. It started with Saryu Rai. Angered by being denied ticket in the last election, Saryu Rai had fought against the then Chief Minister Raghubar Das and defeated him. Since then Saryu Rai was out of the party. But before the last elections, with the consent of top BJP leaders, he was included in Janata Dal U and his old Jamshedpur West seat was left for Janata Dal U so that he could contest from there.
Along with him, Jamshedpur leader and party’s state spokesperson Amarpreet Singh Kale also distanced himself from the party. He was also accused of working against Raghubar Das in the elections. But now he has also entered the party. He has been made the state spokesperson of BJP. Amarpreet Singh Kale, who has a good influence on Jamshedpur East seat, has met BJP candidate and Raghubar Das’s daughter-in-law Purnima Das and now he will help her. Similarly, former state president Ravindra Rai, who was trying to contest as an independent, was also persuaded by BJP’s election in-charge Shivraj Singh and co-in-charge Himanta Biswa Sarma at his home. Although many BJP leaders are still angry, the leaders who can influence the results are being celebrated.
