The OBCs are emerging as key to success in UP elections

-National Herald

Sanjay Nishad has emerged as the new poster boy of OBC politics in UP as all political parties are locked in an intense race to woo non dominant OBCs, who constitute about 35% of the population

On Thursday night a meeting of Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath was held with BJP national president J P Nadda and Union Home Minister Amit Shah in New Delhi. In the latter half of the meeting President of the Nirbal Indian Shoshit Hamara Aam Dal (NISHAD) Sanjay Nishad too joined the meeting sparking speculation that BJP may take a big decision about the backwards and Other Backward Castes (OBCs).

“Nishad’s presence in the meeting shows that he might be given an MLC seat and probably a ministerial berth in the Yogi cabinet. Though the next assembly election in Uttar Pradesh is just five months away, the expansion has no meaning but it will have an optic value particularly if the marginalized leader gets a ministerial post,” says a senior BJP leader.
