Pappu Yadav Allegedly Snubbed From Rahul Gandhi’s Bihar Protest Convoy
Political tensions are flaring in Bihar as reports emerge of Pappu Yadav, leader of the Jan Adhikar Party (Loktantrik), being excluded from Rahul Gandhi’s protest convoy. The Congress leader led a march to the Patna Election Commission office on Wednesday to demonstrate against what the Grand Alliance considers a flawed voter list revision process ahead of the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections.
Grand Alliance Leaders Unite, But Questions Remain About Pappu Yadav’s Absence
While prominent leaders like RJD’s Tejashwi Yadav, CPI(ML) Liberation’s General Secretary Dipankar Bhattacharya, and CPI General Secretary D. Raja joined Rahul Gandhi in the protest, Pappu Yadav’s absence was conspicuous. This raises questions about the unity of the opposition and potential internal conflicts.
Controversy Surrounding Voter List Revision Sparks Protest
The protest highlights concerns about the accuracy and fairness of the voter list revisions being implemented. The Grand Alliance claims the revisions are being manipulated, potentially disenfranchising voters. The exclusion of Pappu Yadav from the protest adds another layer of complexity to the already charged political atmosphere in Bihar.
