CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: Folk singer Maithili Thakur has sparked speculation about her potential political debut in the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections. Following a recent meeting with BJP leaders, including Union Minister Nityanand Rai and BJP election in-charge Vinod Tawde, Thakur expressed a desire to represent her home constituency, Benipatti in Madhubani district.
While she did not confirm any official political affiliation, Thakur emphasized her strong emotional connection to her village and the state’s progress. She stated, “I would like to stand from my village constituency because I have an attachment to it.”
Thakur’s potential candidacy could be a strategic move by the BJP to appeal to regional sentiments and cultural pride among voters. Her popularity, especially among the youth in Mithilanchal, could bolster the party’s image as it seeks to broaden its base.
As of now, no official announcement has been made regarding her candidacy, and Thakur remains non-committal about her political future.
