National Democratic Alliance’s ally Suheldev Bharatiya Samaj Party has announced its candidate from Ghosi Lok Sabha seat.
Dr. Arvind Rajbhar has been made the candidate on this seat. Who is the son of the party’s national president Om Prakash Rajbhar. Om Prakash Rajbhar took oath as minister on Tuesday and said that he will make efforts to make BJP win all 80 seats in the state.
It is being told that Rajbhar will get two seats in the NDA alliance. Talks are going on for the second seat. Therefore the candidate was not announced.
Om Prakash Rajbhar had formed Suheldev Bharatiya Samaj Party in 2002 by taking Rajbhar and other extremely backward castes along with him in the state. In 2017, SubhaSP had contested the elections in alliance with BJP and won three seats.
Rajbhar was made the Backward Class Welfare Minister, but due to differences with the Yogi government, he separated from the government in March 2019. In the Lok Sabha elections 2019, SubhaSP contested the elections on its own. In the assembly elections 2022, first SubhaSP formed an alliance with SP. Due to the alliance of SubhaSP and SP, BJP suffered a loss of about 10-15 seats in Purvanchal. Subhaspa got six seats in the elections.
His alliance with SP also did not last long. In July 2023, Rajbhar broke the alliance with SP and again joined NDA and on March 5, 2024, he was made a minister.
After becoming minister, Rajbhar had said that there is no fight in the Lok Sabha elections. The rule of law has been established in the state under the leadership of CM Yogi. NDA will win all 80 seats in UP.
In UP, Nishad Party may get one seat and Apna Dal (S) may get two seats.
