Bihar Assembly Election 2020: Future Of Delhi Congress

Bihar assembly election 2020 eclipsed on the future of the Delhi Congress. The Delhi unit of Congress, which is continuously losing its base, has now been eclipsed for the Bihar assembly election 2020. For the proposed Municipal Corporation election in April 2022, where BJP and Aam Aadmi Party have been restructuring the organization as well as focusing on local level issues.

At the same time, Congress is not even considering anything in this direction. The party’s Delhi unit has clearly stated that at the moment the focus is on Bihar and not on Delhi. Meaning, three to four months’ time at the party is going to be wasted. Here, let me tell you that in the February 2020 assembly elections, the Congress was reduced to only four percent votes. Since then, the party’s base has been steadily slipping.

The activist is frustrated because he does not see the political future of the party, while the senior leaders have become dysfunctional because the state command has been given to a leader in the form of Anil Chaudhary who has no acceptability. Alam is that Chaudhary is about to become state president for six months, a step towards restructuring the organization has not been taken. The state executive has not been formed for the last nearly seven years.

The Executive Committee was constituted for the last time in 2013 when Jayaprakash Aggarwal was the State President. After him Arvinder Singh Lovely, Ajay Maken, Sheela Dixit and Subhash Chopra became the president, but no one set up the executive. Now Chaudhary is taking command, but the executive is still hanging in the lurch. Due to the absence of an executive, the enthusiasm to work for the party is no longer among most leaders and workers.

Even all frontal units, including the State Women’s Congress, are running in god’s faith. Although talk of executive formation and accommodating senior and young leaders also arise from time to time, there is factionalism and disintegration in the party to the extent that as if it is a snake’s bill, no one can muster the courage to join it. It is worth noting that the party does not look very serious even in the wake of the corporation elections held after one and a half years.

Even state in-charge Shakti Singh Gohil is not in any hurry about the Delhi Congress. According to Shakti Singh Gohil (in-charge, Delhi Congress), the focus of the Congress at present is Bihar elections only. Nothing is going on or is being thought about in Delhi at the moment. So whatever will happen, now Bihar will happen only after elections, not before that.
