Mukesh Sahni ambition crisis has become a major topic in Bihar politics. Many voters now wonder why his influence is shrinking. Mukesh Sahni ambition crisis started when he asked for the Deputy Chief Minister post and 60 seats in the Grand Alliance. He repeated this demand in every rally and told Mallahs and Nishads to support the alliance fully.
The Grand Alliance finally made him its Deputy CM face but gave him only 15 seats. Later, he lost three more seats because the RJD insisted on it. His candidate in Tarapur even left the party. These setbacks created confusion and weakened his campaign.
VIP gave tickets to many candidates from Extremely Backward Classes. Sahni said many times that if the alliance won, a son from his community would become Deputy CM. However, the Mallah and Nishad communities did not support him strongly. His message failed to convince them.
Two days before polling, VIP removed his brother Santosh Sahni as the candidate from Gaurabaram. This sudden move damaged his image further. In 2020, VIP won four seats as part of the NDA. But this time, VIP suffered a heavy defeat, showing how the Mukesh Sahni ambition crisis affected the party.
