MP News: Although Shivraj Singh Chauhan, the former chief minister of MP, is an OBC, his replacement is not in Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, or Haryana—politically significant states. In UP and Bihar, where they serve as the backbone of the Samajwadi Party and the RJD, respectively, the BJP has found it difficult to win over the local population. The fact that Mohan Yadav, the chief of the state’s wrestling and Olympic associations, is assuming the role of the only community member as chief minister, is a sign of the BJP’s steadfast determination to gain traction with them.
Power Dynamics in Ujjain
Yadav is powerful in the temple city of Ujjain. He can wield a sword with both hands. As a minister, Yadav declared that degrees would only be awarded to students who had planted a sapling and that the study of the “Ramcharitmanas” would no longer be required in colleges in 2021.
Mohan Yadav’s Gratitude to BJP
“It is only a party like BJP that can give a small worker like me such a big responsibility. I will take forward the developmental works started by PM Modi and Chouhan,” Yadav said. The popularity of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the strength of the organisation meant that even though the leadership’s choice may have baffled some, it is unlikely to cause problems in the short term. This is because the party had approached voters with the “MP ke mann mein Modi” plank.
Supporters Rally for Chief Minister Candidates
All day long, supporters of the candidates running for chief minister gathered outside the state BJP office and chanted slogans. Some shouted “Mama, Mama” for Chouhan, “Dada, Dada” for Prahlad Singh Patel, and “Bhaiyya, Bhaiyya” for Kailash Vijayvargiya. The announcement that Mohan Yadav would succeed As CM came at 4:35 p.m. The next few minutes were silent, then the drums started up again.
Yadav’s Appointment and the Raje Camp in Rajasthan BJP
In addition to unsettling the Raje camp in the Rajasthan BJP, the decision is probably going to pressure the Congress to make changes to the MP unit. The leadership appears at odds with the social dynamics that have resulted in the BJP promoting leaders from lower castes since 2003, and they are already facing criticism over the overwhelming defeat.
