Ahmedabad: To defeat the Grand Alliance in Bihar, the BJP has started forming an array. After making Samrat Chaudhary the state president, BJP has appointed PM Narendra Modi’s ‘Mr. Dependable’ Sunil Ojha as co-incharge of Bihar BJP. Sunil Ojha, who has been handling the Kashi region for years in the Prime Minister’s constituency Varanasi, has also accepted the challenge of the mission by posting a poem related to ‘Main Bihar Hoon’. Sunil Ojha, who again came in limelight after being in charge of Bihar, is being called the architect of Kashi’s victory, it is being said that in view of his work in UP, he has been given the responsibility of Bihar. Both these things may be important in the deployment of Ojha on the important front of Bihar, but the way he has been entrusted with important responsibilities in the organization since December 2011, Ojha’s own understanding and hard work are behind it. On the basis of which he has created the image of his Mr. Trustworthy. It begins 21 years ago from Rajkot. When PM Narendra Modi entered into electoral politics.

Modi’s first victory
Prime Minister Narendra Modi contested the first election of his life in February 2002 after taking over as the Chief Minister of Gujarat. When he entered electoral politics for the first time in place of Vajubhai Vala, Sunil Ojha was in charge of his election in Rajkot. Ojha had done better election management in this election through his understanding and hard work. This impressed Modi a lot. In 2002, Modi again fought from Maninagar later and Ojha reached the assembly from his seat Bhavnagar South. It is said that Ojha’s connection with Modi is older than this. Ojha has been acquainted with Modi since he was the general secretary of the organization. Not only this, Sunil Ojha has worked for Dalsania in charge of Bihar. Bhikhu Dalsania is also present in the 21 year old photo below. One reason for Sunil Ojha being made co-incharge of Bihar could also be that there should be better coordination. While Dalsania keeps the background of RSS, Sunil Ojha basically represents the BJP organization. Accordingly, the jugalbandi of both can be a game changer.

Left party on differences
Before the 2007 assembly elections, Sunil Ojha left the party after not getting a ticket and then contested the elections from Lok Jan Shakti, the party of BJP’s rebel leader Uma Bharti in those days. He got only 2,000 votes. At that time Ojha claimed that Lok Jan Shakti Party would win 50 per cent seats in the state but his claim also proved to be hollow. After this, when former Chief Minister Keshubhai Patel formed the Mahagujarat Parivartan Party, he became its founding member, but in the beginning of 2011, Ojha suddenly left the Mahagujarat Parivartan Party. After this, after being in seclusion for a few days, at the end of 2011, Narendra Modi returned to BJP before the proposed Sadbhavna fast in Bhavnagar. After this it was discussed that he would contest from his traditional Bhavnagar South seat. It did not happen. BJP entrusted him with the work of organization. In 2012, when Narendra Modi made his Delhi plan, Sunil Ojha was included in it.

In 2019, he was also given the responsibility of Goraksh province. Ojha, who was involved in Modi’s maiden victory in the Rajkot election, played a big role in helping the BJP win handsomely in the 2017 and 2022 assembly and 2014 and 2019 Lok Sabha elections in Uttar Pradesh. It is said that the success achieved in Varanasi and surrounding areas. Ojha had a good role in that. Local Journalist of Bhavnagar Vipul Hirani It is said that an exorcist is a man of organization. He loves working, meeting people and being among them. BJP has given him the work of his mind. This is the reason why we are able to give 100 percent. They already know PM Modi, so they know the do’s and don’ts very well. In such a situation, where there is a possibility of mistake by others, then such a situation is not with the exorcist.

Keshubhai’s close friend became Modi’s confidante
Sunil Ojha, who was elected MLA from Bhavnagar South for the first time in 1998, was initially considered close to Keshubhai Patel, but after the 2002 Rajkot election, his closeness also increased with PM Modi. Then he slowly came closer to Modi. Senior journalist Dilip Gohil says that the challenge in Bihar is huge. In such a situation, you have to come up with a better strategy. In view of this, Narendra Bhai has put an experienced leader like Ojha on the front. In BJP’s tally of 303, 39 (40) seats came from Bihar. In such a situation, when there will be a competition with the Grand Alliance, a lot of preparation is needed. Gohil says the new assignment will test Ojha hard.
