LJP founder and Union minister Ram Vilas Paswan pass away after a heart surgury. Chirag Paswan is the leader of LJP in all sense of the word. He emerged as a youth political superstar in the JNP landslide of 1977 when he won his seat 89%-8% over INC which I think to this day is the largest margin in a LS election in a competitive election. He went on to be a key leader in the various Janata parties forming alliance with both INC and BJP.
A famous joke about Bihar elections is: We do not know who will win the election but no matter what Ram Vilas Paswan will emerge as part of the winning front and be in the cabinet.
I think Chirag Paswan is going to keep that tradition. He's positioned himself in such a way during this Assembly election that it appears he can join either side and come out a winner.
