What was the statement of Upendra Kushwaha on which political discussion has started?
The whole matter started when during a media interaction, Upendra Kushwaha was asked a question about his political future and ambitions. In response to this, he said that who in politics does not want to reach the highest post of the country i.e. the chair of the Prime Minister, and like every politician, he too may have this personal desire or ambition. Although he also clarified that it all depends on the circumstances and public support, his statement was immediately seized upon by political analysts and opponents. In a state like Bihar, where every party is trying to consolidate its ground within its caste and regional boundaries, when a leader of an ally party expressed his desire to become the Prime Minister, various kinds of speculations started being made in the political circles. While the opposition termed it a daydream, the leaders of the ruling party also reacted to it in a light-hearted manner.
Anant Singh’s sharp and typical retort: ”Everyone’s heart does, but everyone becomes a little”
When journalists asked powerful leader Anant Singh, known for his distinctive desi and outspoken attitude, for his reaction on Upendra Kushwaha’s statement, he made a direct and forceful attack without any hesitation. Anant Singh, laughing in his familiar style, said, “Not only Upendra Kushwaha, but we also feel like becoming the Prime Minister of the country.” He further said that every person can aspire to become anything, be it the Prime Minister or the President, but no one can sit on that chair just by wishing in the mind. For this, public support, party strength and political conditions should be favourable. This sharp and sarcastic statement of Anant Singh proved how well he understands the pulse of politics and how he can make any big statement a mirror of the ground reality in a jiffy.
