Khazavali — Mon, 01 Dec 2025 05:24:24 +0000

Bulldozer action in Patna has created strong political reactions across Bihar. The CPI(ML) announced a state-wide protest on December 3, saying that the bulldozer action in Patna is hurting the poor and Dalit families. Party leaders said the government must stop these operations and listen to the concerns of local residents.

CPI(ML) State Secretary Kunal explained that bulldozers are being used in many districts after the elections. He said this step affects poor communities the most. The party plans to hold a large protest in front of the Bihar Assembly, along with sit-ins and rallies across the state.

Meanwhile, the Patna administration has started a big encroachment-removal drive. Nine teams will clear illegal structures in areas like Nutan Rajdhani, Pataliputra, Kankarbagh, Bankipur, Azimabad, and Patna City. Officials said the drive includes the Municipal Corporation, Police, Transport Department, and Zonal Officers.

The government claims this is necessary to keep public spaces clear. However, CPI(ML) says that the action targets vulnerable people, and they are urging citizens to join the December 3 demonstrations.

Dalits Will Not Be Suppressed, Says Congress President Rajesh Ram

Congress leader Rajesh Ram made a bold statement during the Bihar elections. He said, “Dalits will not be suppressed; there will be a revolution.” He also added, “Dalits will not bow down. Jai Bapu, Jai Bhim, Jai Constitution, Jai Congress.” His post quickly became the talk of Bihar politics.

The Grand Alliance, led by Rahul Gandhi and Tejashwi Yadav, is facing trouble over seat sharing. Congress has named 48 candidates, including Rajesh Ram from the Kutumba seat. RJD has also announced 48 candidates. Reports say both parties may face each other in Kutumba.

When Rajesh Ram visited Kutumba, some RJD workers protested. They shouted slogans against him. RJD may give a ticket to Suresh Paswan from the same seat, which could lead to a friendly fight between allies.

Rajesh Ram’s strong words have caught public attention. Many believe his message will inspire Dalit voters and change Bihar’s political tone. His phrase, “Dalits will not be suppressed,” has now become a call for equality and strength.
