Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) chief and Union Minister Chirag Paswan During a public event in Khagaria, his uncle Pashupati Kumar Paras Took blessings by touching his feet. This ‘glimpse of kinship’ seen after years in the family and party which was torn apart after the death of Ram Vilas Paswan, has sparked a new discussion in the political corridors of Bihar. Was it just a courtesy or is the war of supremacy between ‘uncle and nephew’ about to end?
1. That stage of Khagaria: Where ‘Hanuman’ bowed down
When both the leaders reached the stage together in a social program organized at Alauli in Khagaria, Chirag Paswan without any hesitation came forward and touched the feet of Pashupati Paras.
Uncle’s response: Pashupati Paras also smiled and placed his hand on his nephew’s head and blessed him for victory.
Supporters’ enthusiasm: As soon as they saw this scene on the stage, slogans of ‘Paswan Amar Rahe’ started being raised and a sparkle was seen in the eyes of the workers on both sides.
2. Ram Vilas’ legacy: What will the merger mean?
After the death of late Ram Vilas Paswan, Pashupati Paras broke the party (LJP) and formed a separate group, after which Chirag even called him a ‘traitor’. But in recent times, changed equations have brought the two closer.
NDA pressure: Sources believe that in view of the upcoming assembly elections, the top leadership of BJP wants the Paswan family to remain united so that there is no disintegration in the Dalit vote bank (Paswan vote).
Power Performance: Chirag Paswan is currently a strong pillar of NDA, while the political future of Pashupati Paras currently seems to be on the margins. In such a situation, this ‘inclination’ can prove to be a lifesaver for the Paras group.
3. “Blood relations never end”: Chirag Paswan
After coming down from the stage, when the media questioned Chirag about this union, he said in a very measured manner, “Politics has its place, but values and family have their place. Uncle is like my father and taking blessings of elders is our culture. Politics should not be seen in this.” Pashupati Paras also praised Chirag and called him the ‘leader of the future’.
4. Political meaning: Heartbeats of opponents increased
If there is a reconciliation between Chirag and Pashupati Paras and both the parties (LJP-R and RLJP) come together again, then:
Vote Bank: This group will unilaterally capture 6% of Paswan votes in Bihar.
Loss to RJD: Tejashwi Yadav, who was trying to steal Paswan’s votes, may get a big shock.
Chirag’s Height: After joining the family, Chirag Paswan’s stature will become even bigger in NDA and Bihar politics.
