Congress played OBC card, 33 percent candidates are from backward class; How many upper castes and Muslims?

Congress has played the OBC card for the Jharkhand Assembly elections. In the first list released by the party, out of 21 candidates, seven have been made from backward class and seven from tribal quota. Deepika Pandey Singh has been made the candidate from Mahagama, who can convert OBC votes along with upper caste votes in favor of the party. In this way, OBCs have staked claim on eight seats. Apart from these, Congress has played its bet only on the present tribal MLAs from 7 seats. Muslim candidate has been fielded from Jamtara.

Congress has been continuously demanding 27 reservations for backward classes. This was promised in the manifesto of the last election, but even after passing the proposal from the Jharkhand Assembly, it has not been implemented yet. The matter is pending with the Central Government.

State President was made from OBC quota

Congress made Keshav Mahato Kamlesh the state president to woo backward class voters in its favor. This gave a message to the OBC voters that the party has given the highest post in the state to a person from their community. In such a situation, the party will continue to work for the upliftment of the society.

Congress has given its Vishrampur seat contested in the 2019 assembly elections to RJD. In such a situation, the party can field a candidate from Chhatarpur. Congress has included former minister Radhakrishna Kishore in the party. He can be a candidate from here. At the same time, due to Pakur MLA Alamgir Alam being in jail, his wife or son seems to be getting the ticket.

Apart from this, it is considered certain that MLA Umashankar Akela or his son from Barhi and KN Tripathi from Daltonganj will get the ticket. Apart from this, churning is going on on the names of Ajay Dubey or Abhijeet Raj from Dhanbad, Devendra Singh alias Bittu Singh from Panki, Chandan Baitha from Kanke and three from Bokaro.
