ndian democracy prides itself on giving every citizen the right to choose their leader. But what happens when that choice becomes a glaring contradiction — when a society that cries for development, jobs, and progress ends up voting for the very forces that keep it backward?

That’s exactly what happened in Bihar.

On one side: Osama Shahab

* Son of gangster Shahabuddin,
* A family name that echoes through the darker chapters of Bihar’s crime history,
* Yet -88,000 voters- placed their trust in him.

On the other side: Dr. K.C. Sinha

* One of India’s finest mathematicians,
* Author of textbooks that shaped the future of countless students,
* A man who has contributed more to this nation’s intellect than many politicians combined —
  And yet he received only 15,000 votes.

Result? Crime was crowned. Education was humiliated.

How will Bihar justify this choice?

If voters claim they want progress, then why does their vote tell a completely different story?

Are we saying:
“We don’t need knowledge. We prefer influence and intimidation.”

Are we admitting:

“We want development, but only from those who have nothing to do with it.”

Are we telling the world:
Character doesn’t matter. Merit doesn’t matter. Education doesn’t matter.
Only caste equations and emotional baggage matter.

If that’s true, then this isn’t just Bihar’s loss —
This is a defeat for democracy itself.

What message did Siwan send?

The election result silently whispered:

“We complain about crime, but we still glorify those connected to it.”

 “We say we want good schools, yet we reject the very people who built those schools.”

“We talk about change, but vote with the same old patterns that chained us to the past.”

This contradiction is why Bihar struggles.
This mindset is why the youth leave.
This thinking is why industries don’t come.
This is why Bihar remains stuck.

  • Is caste bigger than competence?

When a towering educator like Dr. K.C. Sinha gets rejected, the message is painful:

“If you’re educated and honest, politics is not for you.”

What a tragedy — the very people who can transform Bihar step back, and those who benefit from chaos rise to power.
---
So the question to the voters is simple: When will Bihar wake up?

When criminals win, society loses.
When education loses, the future collapses.
And when a state repeatedly embraces crime in the name of politics,
The world stops taking that state seriously.

Bihar keeps demanding jobs, industries, and development —
But how will these come when voters reward the exact opposite forces?

---

The results can’t be changed. But the mindset can.

This article isn’t about one individual.
It’s a mirror held up to Bihar’s society.

If voters continue prioritizing caste, fear, and emotional narratives over merit, integrity, and intellect…
Then what right do we have to complain about unemployment, poverty, or the lack of progress?
A society that chooses crime cannot fight crime.

A society that rejects education cannot rise.
