With assembly elections approaching in state and political parties gearing up for it by organising different meetings including an opinion taking process for selection of prospective candidates here in Dhanbad 'outsides' created ruckus during an opinion gathering meeting held at BJP office on Wednesday.
Some bigwings that include people having huge investment in health, education and coal mining sector in the district want to oust sitting Dhanbad MLA and get BJP ticket on the basis of wealth.
This was the main reason for the ruckus created by supporters of one L B Singh owner of an outsourced mining company operating in BCCL who came with supporters that he probably bought on payment to shought against the Dhanbad MLA. Later, when the Bank More BJP committee president identified them as not members of BJP they escaped and even threatened supporters of Dhanbad MLA. Later it was identified that those were members of RJD and Congress and had come with LB Singh to shough slogans for him .
Besides, LB Singh, Harendar Singh, Amresh Singh, Upendar Singh also have thrown their hats in the ring besides some staunch supporters of newly elected Dhanbad MP Dhullu Mahto..
When asked to comment, sitting MLA Raj Sinha refused to comment but LB Singh said he is in line of candidates to get a ticket. When asked about the ruckus created by people brought by him, he said such things do happen during such meetings.
This indicates that once claimed to be a party with disciplined workers has failed in maintaining discipline and that too when it's needed much more as elections are approaching.
