Union law minister Ravishankar Prasad said the party’s electoral commission should be constituted at the district level to support the candidates in the upcoming Bihar panchayat elections. He advised Sail lawyers to study the Panchayat Law more closely. Know the guidelines so that you can provide legal support when needed. Prasad made this statement during a one-day workshop held at the party office on the role of the BJP Election Commission cell for the upcoming panchayat elections.
BJP state president Dr Sanjay Jaiswal said the party could provide legal assistance to the candidates, though it is not yet clear whether the panchayat elections will be held on a party basis. He spoke of increasing the leadership of the reserved sub-castes who lack leadership. Health Minister Mangal Pandey, Road Construction Minister Nitin Naveen, Law Minister Pramod Kumar, Minister Janak Ram, Former Union Minister CP Thakur, Rajya Sabha MP Vivek Thakur, MP Ramakripal Yadav, MLAs Sanjeev Chaurasia and Arun Jaitley General SD Sanjay, former BJP Advocate Munch President Shambhu Prasad, former Forum President Harendra Prasad Singh and others spoke at the workshop. The workshop was inaugurated by former minister Nandakishore Yadav, BJP co-ordinating minister Sivanarain Prasad and SAIL state convener Radhika Raman. Additional Solicitor General K.N. Singh, Rakesh Thakur, BJP’s electoral coordinator, and SAIL co-convener Kumar Sachin were also present.
RJD-Congress claims SC-ST: Modi
Former deputy chief minister and MP Sushil Kumar Modi said that the panchayat elections in Bihar should not be held for 23 years and that there should be widespread publicity that reservation of SC and ST in the same post in 2001 was constitutional. Well, the RJD-Congress has the responsibility to deny them. Appreciating the decision of the state government to conduct panchayat elections through EVMs, he said this would effectively prevent chaos in the lower level elections.
