Bihar Assembly by-election: Jitan Ram Manjhi's daughter-in-law enters politics, Deepa Manjhi becomes candidate from Imamganj seat.

By-elections are going to be held on November 13 on four assembly seats of Bihar, in which Belaganj and Imamganj seats belong to Gaya district. Imamganj seat had become vacant after the resignation of Union Minister Jitan Ram Manjhi, and Hindustani Awam Morcha was claiming it on behalf of NDA. However, selecting candidates was proving to be a challenge for the party. Meanwhile, the party has made Deepa Manjhi, daughter-in-law of Jitan Ram Manjhi, its candidate from Imamganj seat.

Deepa Manjhi became candidate from Imamganj seat

It is clear that a member of the Manjhi family will be a candidate in this election, but there are many complications regarding the candidature. According to sources, many members of Jitan Ram Manjhi's family are staking their claim for the ticket, due to which the selection process has become more complicated. Now recently news has come out that Jitan Ram Manjhi's daughter-in-law Deepa Manjhi has been made the candidate from Imamganj seat.

Praveen Manjhi, son of Jitan Ram Manjhi

Praveen Manjhi's claim: There was talk of Jitan Ram Manjhi's son Praveen Manjhi getting ticket in the by-election of Imamganj assembly. While Santosh Manjhi is already in the election race and has also become a minister, Jitan Ram Manjhi was trying to promote Praveen Manjhi as well. Praveen Manjhi has also gained experience as a councilor while being active in politics. There was talk of giving her a chance in the by-elections this time, but now this possibility seems to be decreasing because Deepa Manjhi has also come into the fray to contest the elections.

Son-in-law Devendra Manjhi's claim

Devendra Manjhi is also presenting his claim in the elections. He considers himself a strong candidate and is confident that we will get the Imamganj ticket from the party in the by-elections. Devendra Manjhi is the son-in-law of Jitan Ram Manjhi and last time he got a chance to contest elections from Makhdumpur, but he lost. This time he is preparing to contest elections from Imamganj. Now the final decision of the party is awaited.

Jitan Ram Manjhi's dilemma

In this situation, selecting a ticket for Jitan Ram Manjhi is proving to be challenging. His daughter-in-law Deepa Manjhi, son Praveen Manjhi and son-in-law Devendra Manjhi are all interested in contesting the elections. However, there is more discussion about Deepa Manjhi's candidature, especially because Santosh Manjhi is a minister in the Bihar government and the national president of the party. Now it remains to be seen how Jitan Ram Manjhi solves this dilemma.
