All the political parties of the state have already come into electoral mode regarding the Bihar assembly elections. Every party is engaged in making strategies according to its respective. Rashtriya Janata Dal, the main opposition party of the state, organized a Yuva Chaupal in the capital on Wednesday. RJD youth supporters from all over the state participated. According to the political experts, the RJD is trying his best to help the youth.
If you look at the figures, then the figures of Bihar are telling different stories compared to other states of the country. Bihar is a state which is the youngest. According to one figure, about 58 percent of the population of Bihar is youth. That is, the age of 58 percent of the population is less than 25 years. However, it is ironic that despite being such a large number of youth, they are forced to go to another state for jobs, skill development and better education.
If you look at the report of Bihar Economic Survey 2021-22, the order of population in Bihar will continue to increase continuously. Three years ago, on the orders of the Election Commission of India, the Chief Electoral Officer of Bihar issued the estimated population of Bihar on the basis of the pending census. According to this, currently the estimated population of Bihar is around 14 crore 91 lakhs. Of these, there are about seven crore 55 lakh men and about seven crore and a half lakh female population.
If we look at the statistics, the number of voters in Bihar is different. Of these, the number of voters in the class of 18 to 19 years is 6,80,559. The number of voters in classes of 20 to 29 years is 1,68,62,618 and the number of voters in the category of 30 to 39 years is 2,042,8150. The number of voters in the category of 40 to 49 years is about 1,57,6 2,849. That is, a large group of young voters is in Bihar.
If we talk about other age groups, then 1,06,32,093 voters in 50 to 59 years, 68,57 in 60 to 69 years, 570 voters, 35,75, 429 voters in 70 to 79 years, 429 voters and about 15,29, 411 voters above 80 years.
The politics of Bihar is currently roaming in the youth period. The major political parties of the state are, almost everyone has taken over the command of everyone. If we talk about the ruling BJP in the state, then Deputy CM Samrat Chaudhary is a big face among the youth. Similarly, among other constituents of NDA, LJP Ram Vilas chief and Union Minister Chirag Paswan, we are the president of the party and Minister of Bihar Government Santosh Kumar Suman Yuva. Apart from this, LJP MP Shambhavi Chaudhary, BJP MLA Shreyasi Singh, LJP MP Rajesh Verma are also famous youth faces of the state. Now, in JDU, CM Nitish Kumar's son Nishant's son Nishant is in full swing about his entry into politics.
If we talk about the opposition, there is no shortage of young faces there either. Leader of Opposition Tejashwi Yadav, his elder brother Tej Pratap Yadav, CPI Male MLA Sandeep Saurabh are also young. The Congress also appointed its new in -charge of the Grand Alliance, and then the young leader Krishna Allavaru was made in charge of Bihar.
Senior journalist Dhruv Kumar says, in fact, in the last Lok Sabha election, Tejashwi Yadav raised the issue of employment and migration among the youth of the state in a very vocal way. There is excitement among the youth. They vote vocal. One reason is that the old generations of the state do not appear in the RJD's favor regarding the reign of Lalu-Rabri. Therefore, it is natural for Tejashwi Yadav to focus on the new generation. The youth does not mean the issue of Lalu Rabri Raj. He likes the matter of employment. Perhaps under this strategy, Tejashwi Yadav is trying to help this class.
