PATNA: After over three years of struggle, LJP (Ram Vilas) prez Chirag Paswan through his decisive victory has finally proved he is the “real” political heir of his father Ram Vilas Paswan, who died in Oct 2020.
By winning all the five Lok Sabha seats his party was allotted in the NDA alliance, Chirag has not only maintained LJP’s previous track record of keeping 100% strike rate but also established that he is the new Dalit icon on the political landscape of Bihar.In 2019 polls, LJP under Ram Vilas had won all the six seats that were allotted to the party under the seat-sharing pact.
Everyone was surprised when BJP allotted five seats to Chirag’s party while sparing none to his rival faction Rashtriya Lok Janshakti party, headed by his uncle Pashupati Kumar Paras. Through his spectacular performance, Chirag has now proved how BJP was right in its decision.
LJP(RV) had fielded its candidates in Hajipur, Vaishali, Samastipur, Khagaria and Jamui. Chirag’s victory is commendable as he fought the polls on his own; his father wasn’t there to guide him and uncle Paras and cousin Prince Raj staying away from the poll campaign.
