'Reservation is our right': VIP chief Mukesh Sahani launches poll song, targets BJP on quota cap; ahead of Bihar elections
'Reservation is our right': VIP chief Mukesh Sahani launches poll song, targets BJP on quota cap PATNA: As the political parties are gearing up for the assembly election in Bihar due in October-November this year, the Vikassheel Insaan Party (VIP) of Mukesh Sahani on Sunday launched its poll song, 'Hai Haq Hamara Aarakshan'. Sahani said this is not just a song, but the roar of his Nishad community. "It is the echo of every voice that is fighting for equality and rights. Reservation is our right and we will get it," Sahani said. He also said till BJP is in power, the scope of reservation for backward and SC people cannot increase above 50%. "Only when the INDI Alliance forms govt, people of all sections will get participation as per their population," he said. When asked about the comment of Krishna Allavaru, the Congress in charge of Bihar, regarding the CM face, Mukesh Sahani said everything is clear. "When someone makes a claim then there will be a dispute. If Congress talks about its CM candidate, then discussion on that is also possible," he said. Sahani said the CM face will also be declared soon. On LJP (Ram Vilas) president and union minister Chirag Paswan's announcement to contest all 243 seats in Bihar to ensure NDA win strongly, Sahani took a dig at him and wished him to contest the elections himself. "Chirag had contested 135 seats earlier also. You are the son of Ram Vilas Paswan. A lion's cubs are not like this. If you have courage then fight against everyone, why only against Nitish Kumar?" Sahani said and questioned Chirag's leadership quality. The VIP founder also said his party's fight is only on the issue of reservation and for that he will enter the electoral fray. He said the people of Bihar should not be fooled, but should talk directly about who will contest from where.
