The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has appointed Sanjay Saraogi as the new president of its Bihar unit, a move seen as a strategic move to maintain social balance in the state. Saraogi, a 57-year-old MLA from Darbhanga constituency, replaces Dilip Jaiswal, who was appointed less than two years ago. According to sources, Saraogi's appointment comes almost a month after the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) secured a remarkable majority in the Assembly elections in Bihar. BJP national general secretary Arun Singh confirmed the appointment, stating that it was made with immediate effect by national president Jagat Prakash Nadda. Saraogi, a former cabinet minister in the Bihar government, has a strong hold on the Darbhanga urban seat. He made his electoral debut in 2005 and has been winning the seat consecutively since then. The new Bihar BJP president is also the convenor of the Bihar State BJP Cow Protection Cell and a member of the State Executive Committee. Saraogi's appointment is seen as significant for maintaining social balance and for electoral calculations. As a prominent Vaishya face of the party, he is expected to play a crucial role in the BJP's future plans in Bihar. With his experience as a minister in the previous NDA government and his hold on the Darbhanga urban seat, Saraogi is well-positioned to lead the BJP in the state.
