Kanhaiya's growing political status despite election defeat
Radha Krishna, Patna. Even though Kanhaiya Kumar has not been able to achieve the expected success in electoral politics till now, his hold in Indian politics is continuously getting stronger. Success in today's politics cannot be measured only by electoral victory or defeat, rather it is seen how much acceptance a leader has at the national level and to what extent he is able to influence the discourse. On this criterion, Kanhaiya Kumar has undoubtedly emerged as an influential name.
Inside and outside the Congress, Kanhaiya is being seen as a young leader from Bihar who can strongly present the state's cause on the national platform.
In the current political situation, Kanhaiya is seen at the forefront among the leaders from Bihar who are discussed at the national level in the Congress Party.
This is the reason why the party leadership seems to be continuously entrusting him with important responsibilities and his role in big political campaigns is increasing.
Political analysts believe that if Congress government is formed at the Center in future, Kanhaiya will be in the role of the biggest stakeholder of Bihar.
The reason for this is not only his ideological clarity but also his activism on youth, students and social issues. He has been speaking openly on issues like unemployment, education, social justice and federal structure, which has earned him recognition across the country.
If we look at the politics of Bihar, for a long time this state has been revolving around veteran leaders like Nitish Kumar and Lalu Prasad Yadav.
But in the generation after them, the number of such leaders who can become the voice of Bihar at the national level is very less. If anyone has the ability to fill this void, it is seen in young leaders like Kanhaiya.
Today there is a need that Bihari society should not be limited to only traditional and established faces. Along with leaders like Nitin Naveen, young and vocal leaders like Kanhaiya Kumar also got support and encouragement.
Their strengthening is not just the strengthening of any one party, but the strengthening of Bihar's political stake at the national level.
Overall, Kanhaiya Kumar's politics indicates that the next generation leadership of Bihar is slowly taking shape. If such leaders get opportunity and support, then in the coming times the voice of Bihar can become louder in Delhi politics.
