Expansion Assembly elections are due in Madhya Pradesh next year and in view of this BJP is trying its best to win the trust of tribal voters. From implementing the PESA Act to implementing schemes in the name of tribal leaders, every effort has been made to regain the lost mass base among the tribals. Now Jai Adivasi Yuva Shakti (JAYS), an organization of tribal youth, has planned to take social and political organizations representing backward and Dalits as well as Muslim society to challenge the BJP.

Jayas has started expanding its scope by including the neglected castes of Dalits and Backwards. Preparations are also being made to take its MP Asaduddin Owaisi’s party All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul-Muslimeen i.e. AIMIM along. National Patron of Jai Adivasi Yuva Shakti and Congress MLA Dr. Heeralal Alava has decided to contest on 2018 seats reserved for tribals and having influence in the elections of has been announced. JAIS is preparing to bring with it SC, ST and OBC as well as other small parties. Regarding this, a social discussion and seminar is being organized in Bhopal on December. Dr. Alava says that our aim is to create a team of true patriots by connecting talented youth, which will strengthen the democratic system in the country. Along with this, the protection of the constitution and its 100% compliance will also be possible.

The tribal class plays a decisive role in the formation of government in the state, but now JAIS is following a different strategy. Jayas is now bringing other castes including Manjhi, Dhangar, Banjara along with him. Organizations of many castes have also joined with Jayas. For this, Jayas is also running Samaj Jodo Abhiyan in the state since October. Its agenda is to reach out to every part and class of the state. Under this, a conference was recently organized in Bhopal under the banner of Manjhi Adivasi Mahasangh. 2018 Jais leaders contested on Congress ticket. For this reason, the Congress had snatched the reserved 80 seats from the BJP for SCs. The tribal vote gave it an edge in many other seats. This is the reason why the focus of BJP and Congress is on helping tribal voters. ,
