Every day the new market of discussion about the possible CM in Delhi is decorated. And it arises in the evening. Till now, Pravesh Verma was at the top of the names that were leading for the post of Delhi CM. He has emerged as a superhero in Delhi BJP due to defeating former Delhi CM and Aam Aadmi Party supremo Arvind Kejriwal. His name is the highest discussion in the media. But if a report published in the Indian Express newspaper, then the CM of Delhi will be selected from the newly elected MLAs, but entry Verma’s name is not ahead. According to this newspaper, the names of Ashish Sood, Rekha Gupta, Satish Upadhyay and Shikha Roy are leading in the race in the names of the probables for the post of CM. Since Saturday, there have been several meetings between the RSS and the top leadership of the BJP. These meetings have been attended by Union Home Minister Amit Shah, Defense Minister Rajnath Singh, National General Secretary (Organization) BL Santosh and other senior leaders.
1-What will happen to Verma?
Those who have seen the politics of Rajasthan very closely and understood, they will know how Bhajan Lal Sharma was selected on the post of CM after the assembly elections there. In Rajasthan, you will remember how Maharani Diya Kumari was highlighted during the assembly elections. Many times in PM’s meetings, he was given much importance than other strong leaders of Rajasthan BJP. In the media, the most speculation about the CM of Rajasthan was made about Diya Kumari. Diya Kumari was established as the most dominant cast of Rajasthan as Rajput leader. It was almost assumed that Diya Kumari is sure to become CM. But on the occasion, the name of a low profile man like Bhajanlal Sharma was extended forward and Diya Kumari was sworn in as deputy CM. Diya Kumari Khushi is serving the state today.
In the story of Pravesh Verma, Diya Kumari’s image is visible. The BJP is showing the dream of becoming CM from the last elections to Pravesh Verma, who has been billed from Delhi’s most dominant cast Jat. In the 2020 elections, whenever Arvind Kejriwal used to challenge a BJP leader to debate in the case of Delhi, the Home Minister would be seen in front of the Home Minister instead of Manoj Tiwari instead of Manoj Tiwari. Pravesh Verma has been a Jat leader and Outer has been effective in Delhi. Despite this, he expressed his desire to go ahead and contest against Arvind Kejriwal. It is obvious that Home Minister Amit Shah had support in this matter. Pravesh Verma did not let Arvind Kejriwal get out of New Delhi after working hard. As a result, not only Arvind lost, but all his MLAs also lost. If seen morally, the first right to become CM of Delhi is with Pravesh Verma. Soon after winning the election, Pravesh Verma and Amit Shah’s meeting further emphasized this possibility. Pravesh Verma can also prove to be beneficial in future for other BJP. Because in Haryana, western UP and Rajasthan, they will be useful in giving messages to Jats. Along with this, if Pravesh Verma is not made the CM, the message will be sent to the Jats that BJP is not really his party.
2- The reason for Ashish Sood’s name is ahead
People from all over the country have settled in Delhi and this city has welcomed everyone. But the culture and identity of Delhi is Punjabi. No one can deny this. Perhaps this is the reason why the Bharatiya Janata Party wants to give a Punjabi leadership to Delhi. By the way, many Punjabi leaders are capable of giving qualified leadership in Delhi BJP. But Ashish Sood, who started his politics from the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP), is the most discussed in his name in the political corridors due to his closeness to the RSS. He worked as the General Secretary of the Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM), later became the National Vice President. In 2008, he was made the secretary of Delhi BJP and then became the general secretary. After this he was also a councilor of SDMC .. Indian Express writes on the basis of his sources that it is in his favor that he is one of the major Punjabi speaking leaders of Delhi BJP. He is also considered close to the top leadership of the party. Goes. They have been active in the organization for a long time and have also been the leader of the House in the Councilor and East South MCD. Apart from this, he has also been the Goa in-charge of BJP and co-integral of Jammu and Kashmir. Sood is also considered close to Nadda and Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan. Sood won the Janakpuri seat by a margin of around 19,000 votes in this election. In 2020, he lost the election from this seat.
2- How much possibility of Rekha Gupta and Shikha Roy?
The Bharatiya Janata Party can also target several targets with an arrow by making a woman a woman. Express quoted another source as saying that the post of Chief Minister can also be given to a woman, Punjabi or Jat leader. At the moment, the party seems to be bowing towards making a Punjabi leader the Chief Minister. But there is another strong contender Rekha Gupta for the post of Chief Minister, who has been associated with RSS. She started her political life with the Sangh student organization Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) and became the president of the Delhi University Students Union (DUSU) in the late 1990s.
She has been the Secretary and National Secretary of the Delhi Unit of Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM). Apart from this, she has also been a councilor, general secretary of Delhi BJP Mahila Morcha and a member of BJP’s National Executive.
Along with this, Shikha Roy, who has been a BJP councilor twice from Greater Kailash, is also in the race for the post of Chief Minister. During the curfew in 2011, he made headlines after hoisting the tricolor at Lal Chowk in Srinagar. He contested the assembly elections from Kasturba Nagar in 2015 and Greater Kailash in 2020 but lost. She has been the chairman of the SDMC Standing Committee and the leader of the House. Apart from this, she has also held important organizational positions like Delhi BJP Secretary, General Secretary and Vice President.
Actually, there is no woman in the post of Chief Minister in any state of BJP. Along with this, there has been a long tradition of women Chief Ministers in Delhi. After Sushma Swaraj, Sheila Dixit, Atishi has carried forward this tradition. The first benefit of making a woman the Chief Minister is to the BJP that no caste or community is going to feel resentment. The most fear of making a person from a particular caste or community a CM is the most feared that his special rival starts feeling neglected.
However, apart from these names, many other names are in the race. Former Delhi BJP President Satish Upadhyay is also leading among the possible contenders for the post of Chief Minister. He has been the Vice President of the New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) and has served several important positions including the Vice President of Delhi BJP and the Chairman of SDMC’s Standing Committee.
