Mayawati is sincerely working for creating a new caste combination
Mayawati’s dreams to occupy the Prime Minster’s chai
r in Delhi have got a ray of hope, when her party recently won the UP Assembly bypolls. Mayawati’s political outfit BSP was able to win the Swar Tanda (Rampur) and the Farrukhabad seats. That SP was able to retain its hold over Gunnar Assembly segments does not really worry Mayawati because she may have got the intuition that she is fast inching towards achieving her ultimate objective. Now that the queen of the Dalits has increased her seats tally to 211 in the 403-member UP Assembly, she is more confident of handling Delhi. Brimming with new found confidence, Mayawati is looking forward to mid-term Parliamentary elections. Political pundits are mooting the possibility of Mayawati with 100 plus Members of Parliament, becoming the next Prime Minster. And the lady on a mission is leaving no stone unturned to convert this into a reality.
Gone are the days when Dalit –Brahmin caste interests were considered irreconcilable. But Mayawati has defied history by casting the dye for an unbeatable caste combination. That the Brahmins are accepting to serve the Dalits is borne out by the fact that the Brahmins in Mayawati’s cabinet have shown no reluctance to touch Mayawati’s feet. “We will support any party, which shows us respect. The Brahmins had earlier supported the Congress & the BJP – if BSP treats us respectfully, we may render support to Mayawati also,” Pandit Mahesh Dutt Sharma, President Akhil Bhartiya Brahmin Mahashabha, told B&E How far this alliance travels, only time will tell. But one thing is certain, Mayawati’s stars are on the upswing & she is most likely to play a crucial role in central politics in the near future.

Soren blows siren..
...to inform one and all of his return
Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (J
MM) chief Shibu Soren’s release from prison after being absolved by High Court in the murder of his personal secretary, Shashinath Jha, has stirred state’s politics. Chief Minister Madhu Koda is the first independent MLA in the country to have served as the Chief Minister for 300 days. The impact of Soren’s release was clearly visible in JMM candidate Suman Mahato’s victory in the Jamshedpur parliamentary bypolls. Though Koda’s survival depends on support of 16 JMM legislators in a house of 80 MLAs, he isn’t perturbed. “I am heading a coalition of UPA constituents – JMM, RJD & Congress, besides some independents.
If a decision has to be taken on change of leadership, it has to be in consultation with Sonia Gandhi, Lalu Prasad Yadav and Shibu Soren”, Koda told B&E. Soren, so far, hasn’t given any indication of upsetting Koda’s applecart. “There is lot of scope for improvement. Government is not doing enough for people. But, I don’t intend to take over as CM. I will guide the state government from outside”, he told B&E. There is more reason for Koda to be confident for his survival as the main opposition BJP is in disarray with five MLAs having rebelled against the party. The loss in Jamshedpur parliamentary by-polls was caused by open campaign by husband-wife duo of Shailendra & Abha Mahato, both former BJP MPs, against party’s official nominee Dinesh Sarangi. Soren is not willing to reclaim his earlier job as Union Coal Minister either. With Jha’s relatives considering an appeal in the apex court, Soren intention to maintain a low profile seems to be a sensible decision. But that also means some more sunny days for Koda and more time to better his record.
