Globally, the world’s largest and deepest democracy is India, where the world’s largest population resides. Each of its states is becoming a country with population equal to that of each country in the western countries, which is a matter to be underlined. If we look at the period of last few years, there has been rapid development in all fields including technology, science and technology digitalization. A large section of youth is working hard behind this and older people are doing the work of guidance, the effect of which is still visible in Indian politics. Although it had already started, but due to the results of the assembly elections on December 3, 2023, new faces have been given to the Chief Ministers, due to this suddenly an echo of common workers, generation change and new leadership has been heard, seeing which the general public is amazed. Yes, the same opposition parties are also following the same line and appointing young faces in the states, the latest example of which is that in Madhya Pradesh, a very experienced face has been sidelined and the reins of the state has been handed over to a young leader. In this way, the parties seem to be coming into action for the upcoming 2024 elections by bringing forward the new generation and common workers in their leadership. Since the echo of common workers, new generation and new leadership has been heard since last two days, today we will discuss through this article with the help of information available in the media, generation change in Indian politics, junior in senior action on the side, The effect of which will be seen in the upcoming 2024 Lok Sabha elections. Friends, if we talk about new leadership in Indian politics in the present context, after the success in the assembly elections of three states, a party has New faces have been given opportunities everywhere. It is being told that through this a political experiment has been done to bring forward the leaders of the second row. Along with this, the party has also created a strong symbolic base and has tried to give a new message by creating new social engineering. Friends, if we talk about new leadership in three states, then according to political experts, the party gave a message by fielding caste based faces as Chief Minister and Deputy Chief Minister in Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan. Along with this, the party also surprised everyone by preparing a new political pitch regarding new leadership in the three states. Experts say that Nagpur and the party high command have given many messages behind these decisions. No one is bigger than the party. The mother organization is still as powerful. He can reach whoever and whatever he wants from the floor to the floor.
Friends, if we try to change the grammar of current politics, then the way political parties work or the tradition of political parties, now it is the responsibility of one party and especially the face of a powerful party to change that grammar of politics. Trying to. He says that the party is doing new experiments and many of its decisions are unexpected. He gave the example of Haryana and said that in the same way that ordinary personality was elected the Chief Minister even though there were senior and active leaders present in the organization. Similarly, he says, in Maharashtra also by making an ordinary personality the Chief Minister, the party made powerful Maratha leaders Was shocked. Then he was also made the Deputy Chief Minister. A person from another party is also the Deputy Chief Minister while a person from the other party is the Chief Minister. Not only this, despite losing the assembly elections in Uttarakhand, he was made the Chief Minister. Only the party and only the party’s face and personality can take such risks. The party has surprised its own party leaders not only in the selection of the Chief Minister but also in the selection of the Deputy Chief Minister. Be it in Chhattisgarh or Madhya Pradesh, the party has also tried to balance the caste equations through this. Similarly, Rajasthan Also happened in 2017 where the appointment of Jaipur royal and others as Deputy Chief Minister has been announced. On the day when the party’s legislative party meeting was called in Bhopal, the capital of Madhya Pradesh, a photo session of the newly elected MLAs also took place in the state office. All the big leaders were sitting on chairs in the front row. Among them, the sitting Chief Minister and all the big leaders involved in this race were smiling along with the central observers. The present Chief Minister standing in the third row was hardly recognisable. But after a few minutes he became the most prominent leader from the front row. This might have happened for the first time that the leaders present at the party headquarters in Raipur, Bhopal and Jaipur, the capital of Chhattisgarh, were shocked after the announcement of the names of the Chief Minister. Journalists who were present in Raipur and Jaipur say that some of the announcement was For minutes the workers and leaders could not understand what had happened. There was a similar scene in Bhopal where supporters of the leaders in the race for the post of Chief Minister were camping outside the office. They also had posters of their respective leaders. But when the announcement came, everyone was surprised. Later the CM’s supporters started raising slogans but the number of his supporters was less. The process of handing over top positions to lesser-known faces, which the party has started, is beyond the understanding of analysts, because this step of the party is being interpreted in different ways. Ignoring the stalwarts, the party has handed over the command of the states to leaders whose names are nowhere to be found in any list. Who was not even in the race for Chief Minister. A big message in this is that even an ordinary party worker can dream big, provided he works hard day and night. It is not necessary to be an elite class for this. There is no need for any special family nor any special degree. Apart from these things, it is also true that all the three common and ordinary personalities were born in Rajasthan,An attempt has also been made to solve the caste equation behind making the Chief Ministers of Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh. This change confirms Nagpur as a nursery for grooming future leaders, the growing influence of the ABVP and above all the grip of the central command on the states like mother and son in its heyday.
Friends, if we talk about the Honorable PM in a print media, he talked about this step on the party’s message. The PM was asked that the party has made a relatively new and unknown face the Chief Minister of all three states, what is the message of this? In response to this, the PM said that it has been the misfortune of our country that among those who create impact in social life through their speech, their intelligence and their personality, a large section of them is stuck in a stale, closed mentality. Is. The PM said that this is not limited only to the field of politics, this trend troubles us in every sphere of life, like if a name becomes big in any sector, if someone does his own branding then everyone else is under the influence. It doesn’t go unnoticed, no matter how talented those people are, no matter how much good work they do. Exactly the same thing happens in the political field also. Unfortunately, for many decades the media’s focus has been on only a few families.
So if we study the above entire description and analyze it, we will find that generation change in Indian politics – Junior in senior action on the side. Echo of common worker heard – 2024 fight on new faces. I. A new leadership has been prepared in Indian politics, the impact of which will be seen in the upcoming 2024 Lok Sabha elections
