What should be the reason behind Pankaja Munde not expressing his displeasure?

After beating Pritam Munde in the team 'Narendra' at the center, Dr. Bhagwat Karad was made Minister of State. So, the discussion that Pankaja Munde is upset was starting in political circles. In it, after two days of no reaction, the discussion of resentment gained more momentum

Pankaja Munde finally broke his silence. "I am not upset that Pritam Munde did not get the ministerial post. Pankaja and Pritam never demanded the ministry post," she said.

According to political analysts, in the current situation, Pankaja cannot express his displeasure with the party.

But, on the day of the cabinet expansion, he gave a clear signal that "we are in Mumbai, saying we are not being considered," said Sanjay Varkad, executive editor of Aurangabad's leading newspaper.

Are Pankaja Munde upset?

Political analysts who have closely watched Pankaja Munde's politics say that although Pankaja is not openly expressing his displeasure, he is displeased with the party.

On Friday, he said, "Pritam's name was being discussed. Therefore, there was a feeling of resentment among the workers." At the same time, Union ministers should help the OBC community, he said.

According to political analyst Abhay Deshpande, after the appointment of Bhagwat Karad, Pankaja did not openly express his displeasure, but he could not hide his discomfort and surgery.

"He did not get a seat in the Rajya Sabha. Pritam Munde did not get a chance to become a minister, and, Munde's own supporter, made him a minister without trusting him. This was evident from his speech," he added.

 

Sanjay Varkad further says, "Because the Legislative Council did not consider Pankaj's name, she was hurt the most."

According to political experts, another reason for displeasure is that Dr. Appointment of Karad as Minister. "Dr. Karad has no experience in parliamentary work. He has become an MP for the first time. He has only served as mayor. Therefore, making him the Minister of State directly is the biggest blow to Pankaja Munde."

Why doesn't Pankaja express his displeasure?

Despite being angry with the party, Pankaja Munde never openly shows his displeasure. What could be the reasons for this?

Sanjay Varkad gives five main reasons for this,

Even if sidelined, expect a good position in the future.

There is no benefit in rebelling against the party.

 Due to losing the election and not being an MLA, the aggressors are taking cautious steps rather than taking a stand.

There is no one in the party to save or cover.

 Even if you join Shiv Sena, you will not be able to grow up.

Dhananjay Lambe, a political journalist from Aurangabad, said, "Despite being angry with the party, not expressing one's displeasure openly has to be called political maturity."

According to political experts, the resentment of the leaders reaches the senior leaders of the party through the workers. Pankaja was a minister in Devendra Fadnavis's government. So, they must have thought that everything has a time.

"The problem of OBCs is very big. The BJP will not be able to afford to annoy Pankaj. Probably, their understanding has been worked out.

Is it not possible to speak against Devendra Fadnavis?

Devendra Fadnavis is the supreme leader of BJP in the state. However, he had directly challenged Fadnavis, saying, "I am the Chief Minister in the minds of the people." After that, even though he was burnt with Fadnavis, that statement was sure to damage Pankaja.

Senior  political analyst Abhay Deshpande says, "It is not possible to challenge Devendra Fadnavis and Narendra Modi. As long as the central leadership stands firmly behind Fadnavis, there is no point in expressing displeasure with Devendra or the central leadership."

Meanwhile, disgruntled with not getting a ticket to the Legislative Council, Pankaja Munde had challenged the party, saying he would tour the state. But, due to party pressure, he did not tour.

Freelance journalist Shruti Ganapathi says, "No BJP leader has the courage to go against Narendra Modi.

On the backfoot after losing the election?

In the 2019 Assembly elections, Dhananjay Munde defeated Pankaja Munde. Discussions were going on in the political circles that Devendra Fadnavis helped in the defeat of Pankaj.

 

After that, Pankaja Munde was expecting a role in the Legislative Council. But, he was not given the legislature.

"Pankaja Munde is in a dilemma in the BJP. But, to break this dilemma, it is not the right situation to take a big step, to make a hasty decision," she says.

Political analysts say that the party does not have a big position, so instead of being aggressive, they seem to have taken a cautious stance.

Hoping for an opportunity in the state from the central leadership, they are appearing on the backfoot in the current situation.

Can the rebels leave the party?

Pankaja Munde, who is angry with BJP, was rumored to be joining Shiv Sena.

Sanjay Varkad says, "Everyone knows the relationship between Munde and Thackeray in Maharashtra politics. Therefore, Shiv Sena has an option against Pankaja Munde."

But, "The government of the three-party Mahavikas Aghadi in the state. In that, if you join the Shiv Sena. So, you will not be able to grow as a leader. They are definitely keeping this in mind," Vadkar further said.

Political analysts say that although Dhananjay Munde is a NCP member, he has a very good relationship with Devendra Fadnavis. "Dhananjay Munde can benefit from his anti-BJP stance," said Sanjay Wadkar.

The role of 'Wait and Watch' like Gopinath Munde?

Speaking to reporters on Friday (July 9), Pankaja was moved to say that he remembered Gopinath Munde.

Sanjay Wadkar has seen the politics of Gopinath Munde closely. He says, "Gopinath Munde also had to suffer a lot in the party. He has seen Pankaja Munde closely.

"Gopinath Munde does not want to express his displeasure. But he wants to create pressure to resign. But, Pankaja is not as aggressive as Gopinath Munde. He cannot use that tactic to show strength to the party," he added.

No work in Corona?

Pankaja Munde is frequently criticized for being less in the district and more in Mumbai.

Sanjay Varkad says that she was in Mumbai during the Coronation period due to lockdown. The fact is that they did not work in the villages. However, when she was a minister, she was in touch with the villages.
