In run-up to Lok Sabha poll, Pappu Yadav and Mukesh Sahani’s fate hangs in balance

The Hindu  

With Lok Sabha election only a few months away, the Jan Adhikar Party Loktantrik led by Rajesh Ranjan alias Pappu Yadav and Vikasheel Insaan Party led by Mukesh Sahani, popularly known as ‘Son of Mallah’, are increasingly finding themselves isolated. In all likelihood, Mr. Yadav and Mr. Sahani could play the role of ‘vote katuwa’ in the upcoming Lok Sabha election. Mr. Sahani is banking on his base among Mallahs – an Economically Backward Class community - who are in sizable numbers in about four Lok Sabha seats of Mithila and Tirhut regions in north Bihar. Similarly, Mr. Sahani whose Nishad Sankalp Yatra is under way in Sultanpur of Uttar Pradesh, claims that he can make an impact in over 80 Lok Sabha seats in Bihar, Jharkhand and Uttar Pradesh. The BJP already has a partner from the community in the form of Sanjay Nishad in Uttar Pradesh and by undertaking a yatra in the State, Mr. Sahani is perhaps trying to get noticed by BJP and grab a chance to contest in the Lok Sabha election with BJP’s support.
