NDA Facing Pressure From Within?

Leaders are not satisfied with the ticket distribution, and revolts by party leaders and workers are seen at most places, the source says. BJP party high command has given full authority to Dharmendra Pradhan to convince the leaders who are not happy with the distribution of tickets and explain the party's position and stand, the criteria of selection of winnable candidates, and if still they do not buzz, matters will be tackled with an iron hand, the source says. In a very glaring and difficult revolt supported by the area MP, one Ajay Jha, a very close associate of Pradip Singh, the party MP from Araria constituency, is disturbing the combinations and arrangements, the source says. Ajay Jha is an affluent contractor of the area and is said to be helping the MP on all occasions in all matters. He wanted a ticket from the party from Farbis Ganj or Narkatia Ganj. Presently, Farbis Ganj is represented by the BJP alone, but the sitting MLA's ticket is likely to be cancelled due to anti-incumbency and inefficiency, sources say. Feedback to the party high command was also given, but the background of the RSS helped him secure the ticket, sources say. Ajay Jha's aspirations were hurt, and he filed a nomination as an independent candidate from Narpatiya Ganj, the source says. The party's high command is trying its best to convince him, but so far has not succeeded, the source says. The accumulation of property and other businesses he runs in the area is a hot topic of public discussion, the source says. He also quarrelled with one senior RSS leader, who belongs to Forbasia Ganj source says. All matter is in the knowledge of the high command and this quarrel has forced the MP to drag his feet back to safeguard his future source says.
