JDU prepares to expand its organisation ahead of UP elections, to hold major conference in Kashi on Oct 25

Varanasi, Sep 28 (UNI) Ahead of the Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections, the Janata Dal United (JDU) is orchestrating a major workers' conference in Kashi on October 25 to expand its organisation.
Officials and senior leaders from across the state will participate in this event.
Nishant Kumar, Health Minister in the Bihar government and son of Nitish Kumar, is currently in Varanasi on a two-day visit. On Sunday evening, he held a meeting with party officials at the Circuit House.
After the meeting, he announced that the party is planning a workers' conference in Korauta Bazaar on October 25. Officials and senior leaders from across the state will discuss strengthening the organisation at the conference.
Kumar said that just as the JDU is working closely with the NDA in Bihar, the party will stand with the NDA in Uttar Pradesh as well. Bihar government cabinet minister Shravan Kumar, JDU's Uttar Pradesh president Anoop Singh Patel, and national executive president and MP Sanjay Kumar Jha will also attend the October 25 event.
Political experts believe that JDU is aiming to establish its presence in Uttar Pradesh through this conference. The party's focus will be on the districts bordering Bihar and Purvanchal, where the Kurmi, Kushwaha, and Patel communities are in large numbers. JDU may also contest some seats in Uttar Pradesh in the upcoming assembly elections.
