Mukesh Sahni’s Big Ask: Deputy CM Post and 60 Seats in Bihar Elections

In a bold move, Vikassheel Insaan Party (VIP) chief Mukesh Sahni has staked his claim for the Deputy Chief Minister’s position in Bihar should the Mahagathbandhan alliance emerge victorious in the upcoming elections. He’s even playfully referred to himself as the “second groom” after Tejashwi Yadav, the likely Chief Ministerial candidate.

Sahni’s Demand: 60 Seats for VIP

Sahni’s aspirations don’t stop at the Deputy CM post. He’s also demanding a significant share of the electoral pie, asking for 60 seats to be allocated to his party within the Mahagathbandhan framework. This ambitious demand highlights his growing confidence and the perceived importance of his party’s support for the alliance.

Will the Mahagathbandhan Agree?

The Mahagathbandhan now faces the challenge of balancing the ambitions of its various constituents. Whether they agree to Sahni’s demands remains to be seen. The negotiations and seat-sharing discussions within the alliance will be closely watched in the coming weeks.
