C.R Patil- Emerging as Kurmi Leader in Bihar?

C R Patil played a significant role in the NDA’s victory. According to sources, Patil belongs to the Patidar community of Gujarat. Although he is originally from Jalgaon in Maharashtra, his political activities and influence are primarily centered in Gujarat. He maintains close connections with the Prime Minister and the Home Ministersource says. Patil is regarded as an expert in both macro and micro booth management, which is crucial for electoral success. During the Bihar elections, he managed the booths aggressively and effectively, even bringing in personnel from other regions like Gunrat to strengthen efforts. This was not his first involvement in Bihar’s electoral process; he previously participated actively in the 2015 elections. If credit is to be shared among leaders for the NDA’s success in Bihar, Dharmendra Pradhan should also be recognized alongside C R Patil, according to sources.
