Jai Shri Ram Jai Sanatan Jai BJP
In Sanatan tradition, Brahmin has been considered as the guide, thinker and balancer of the society. Where Brahmins gather, there is churning of knowledge, wisdom and contemplation, which strengthens the Hindu identity. His religion is to unite the society, not to divide it.@BJP4India,

Amidst the turmoil in UP politics, BJP MLA PN Pathak, in his post, emphasized on the traditional role of Brahmin community and expressed loyalty towards Sanatan values, Hindu identity and BJP. The BJP MLA clearly means that this should not be linked to political mobilization. Let us tell you that during this meeting, Litti-Chokha and fruits were served and the MLAs called it an informal meeting. The MLAs said that during this period SIR, regional development and organizational issues were discussed.

Politics has heated up over the banquet of Brahmin MLAs of Bharatiya Janata Party in Lucknow amid the winter session of the Uttar Pradesh Assembly. This dinner was organized at the official residence of Kushinagar MLA PN Pathak on Tuesday evening. In which about 40 Brahmin MLAs and MLCs of BJP have gathered on the pretext of dinner. The ruling party BJP has lost sleep after this news.

This program was given the name of ‘co-banter’ but under this pretext, about 40 Brahmin MLAs and MLCs of the party gathered at the house of BJP MLA PN Pathak. During this, Litti Chokha and fruits of Tuesday fast were served to the MLAs. Nripendra Mishra’s son and MLC Saket Mishra were also present in this program. According to sources, many important issues were discussed during this period.

Politics intensifies when Brahmin MLAs unite

Earlier, during the monsoon session, Thakur MLAs of BJP had also united and now the politics of the state has heated up with the unity of Brahmin MLAs. Many political experts are seeing this as a political mess brewing within the party which can be harmful for the party before the 2027 elections.

These MLAs participated in the banquet program

Information about some important names involved in this program has also come to light. According to the information, BJP MLAs Ratnakar Mishra, Umesh Dwivedi (MLC), Prakash Dwivedi, Ramesh Mishra, Shalabhamani Tripathi, Vipul Dubey, Rakesh Goswami, Ravi Sharma, Vinod Chaturvedi, Sanjay Sharma, Vivekananda Pandey attended the banquet program held at the residence of MLA PN Pathak.

Apart from these, BJP MLAs Anil Tripathi, Ankur Raj Tiwari, Saket Mishra, Babulal Tiwari MLC, Vinay Dwivedi, Subhash Tripathi, Anil Parashar, Kailashnath Shukla, Premnarayan Pandey, Gyan Tiwari, Sunil Dutt Dwivedi, Dharmendra Singh Bhumihar MLC and other MLAs were also present.

After the unity of first Thakur MLAs and now Brahmin MLAs, the dissatisfaction growing among the leaders within BJP is clearly visible. Which can become a big challenge for the state Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and the BJP high command. It will be necessary for the party to unite all these before 2027, otherwise BJP may have to bear the brunt of this in the upcoming elections.
