WILL SATPAL MALIK JOIN RLD?

New Delhi: Meghalaya Governor Satpal Malik will retire on 30 September. Even before retiring, he has opened a front against the central government and the BJP as he has been making allegations of one kind or the other all the time. He raised the issue of farmers as governor and put the central government in the dock. He had raised the issue of alleged corruption while being the Governor of Jammu and Kashmir. After his removal, he will also be investigated and on this pretext also he will have a direct confrontation with the BJP. It is being said that after retiring from the post of Governor, he can join Jayant Chaudhary’s party Rashtriya Lok Dal. Even before joining the Rashtriya Lok Dal, he had started creating an atmosphere in favor of the party. Jayant Choudhary also needs a leader who has a fighting image and the media pays attention to. Satpal Malik is perfect in this respect. His words are featured prominently in the media. However, what will be the situation after the removal of the governor’s post cannot be said. But since he is the governor made by the NDA government and has lived in many states, people are interested in what he has to say. He can also play a role in uniting the Jats and the farmers, but it remains to be seen how the Jat leaders who are already in RLD accept this move i.e. whether they welcome him to the party or not.
