Palamu BJP has postponed its January 27 pro CAA, NRC and NPR rally. The announcement of postponement came from the district BJP president Narendra Pandey in a press conference here on Saturday, which was attended by senior leaders like Shyam Narain Dubey, Prem Singh and Manoj Kumar Singh.

Pandey said, “We had sought permission for the rally of January 27 but the administration refused us. We do not want any unnecessary tussle over it. We decided to postpone it.”

Pandey further said, “The same administration allowed others to take out rally but when it came to BJP the administration came in the way.”

The BJP leader flayed Hemant Soren government citing its failure from day one of the first Cabinet as he said the State is fast plunging into a big anarchy where pathalgadi, extremism, extortion, murder are rocking the State most violently.

DC Shantanu K Agrahari, SP Ajay Linda, SDO Surjit Kumar, SDPO Sandip K Gupta all were in touch with the BJP leaders here convincing them to postpone this Monday rally.

BJP president Pandey admitted senior officials were in touch with him over this rally.

Sources said Gupta and Surjit Kumar even met the Palamu BJP MP V D Ram in this connection and prevailed upon him to use his political influence to ask district unit to postpone the rally.

Gupta confirmed they had met MP V D Ram and had sought his co operation and appreciated Ram’s gesture of co operation.

Sources said the Lohardaga incident and its curfew there have given this wisdom to BJP not to fish in any troubled water as any rally at this juncture has no guarantee that it will not go amok.
