Reborn as a Police Officer in India

Chapter 559 Who's in Charge?

“Roton played a crucial role in this bail,” Bagvante said. “If it weren’t for Roton, the law enforcement agency probably wouldn’t have released him.”

"So, I really should thank Rodon properly?" Arvind said with a sneer.

Bagwant paused for a moment.

What else can he say?
Arvind is quite agitated right now, and he probably won't listen to anything I say.

“Those personnel adjustments need to be carefully considered; the current situation is very inappropriate,” Arvind added.

“The situation in Delhi is complicated right now. If we make any further adjustments, things will get too chaotic internally, and it will be even harder to control the situation in Delhi,” Bagwant said hurriedly.

If Arvind brings some of these guys back, that would be terrible.
Wouldn't the Delhi Afghan Party be in complete chaos and turmoil by then?
Especially since some of these guys were secretly colluding with the People's Party, Bagwant certainly wouldn't want them to come back after finally getting rid of them from key positions.

"What? Do I still stand by my word?" Arvind stared coldly at Bagwant. "These days, quite a few people have tried to talk about you, but I don't believe a word of it."

Bagvante opened his mouth, but he couldn't say much more now.

What's the point of explaining further?

Arvind has now decided that he wants to seize power.

The Delhi Afghan Party did not stabilize after Arvind's return; instead, it became even more chaotic.

……

Bagvante sat down opposite Roton again.

“If this continues, the Delhi Afghan Party is in big trouble,” Bagwant sighed. “I can withstand the pressure from the BJP, but with what Arvind is doing now, we’ll collapse from within.”

“Arvind is no longer fit to lead the Delhi Afghan Party,” Rodon said.

Bagwant was momentarily speechless at this remark.

Regardless, the Delhi Afro-Parti Party was founded by Arvind, and there are indeed some privileges Arvind has.

Even if Bagvante wanted the position, he couldn't openly compete with Arvind for it, as that would be very detrimental to his public image.

"What? You haven't made up your mind yet?" Rodon said with a slight smile.

“This?” Bagwant hesitated for a moment before saying, “Arvind still has a lot of influence internally. If he opposes me, it will be very difficult for me to force my way into power. If things go wrong, it might cause the Delhi Afghan Party to split, which is not the outcome we want to see.”

“That’s right, division is not the outcome I want,” Rodon said. “I’m asking you, do you want to be the leader of the Delhi Afghan Party?”

“Of course, just this?” Bagvant said.

"Make the arrangements. I think I should see Arvind. There are some things you can't explain to him. I can help him clear his head," Rodon said coldly.

Bagvante paused for a moment, then said nothing.

He's at a loss about what to do with Arvind now. Since Rodon has said so, hopefully Rodon can suppress Arvind.

Without Arvind's support, achieving his goal will become much more difficult.

After much thought, he decided to seek help from Rodon.

Two days later, in a private room at a hotel.

“Speak quickly if you have something to say,” Arvind said to Bagwant. “There’s no point in delaying the personnel changes any longer; my mind is made up.”

He now has a lot of opinions about Bagwant.

Unexpectedly, Bagwant had such thoughts after he was detained by law enforcement for a period of time.

Trying to seize power is utterly absurd.

At that moment, the door was pushed open.

Hearing the noise, Arvind turned around and was somewhat surprised to see Rodon enter.

"I heard you two were here, so I came over to say hello," Rodon said with a hearty laugh.

Arvind snorted coldly.

What greeting? This was clearly arranged by Bagwant.

He had thought Bagvante had called him out to discuss internal personnel adjustments, but he hadn't expected to meet with Rodon instead.

This made him feel even worse about Bagvant.

Isn't this deception?

If I had known Rodton would be coming today, I probably wouldn't have come.

Because of the actions of the Maharatna Afghan Party in Delhi, and the relationship between Bagwant and Roton, Arvind now has a lot of opinions about Roton and does not want to see him.

"Thank you very much for the matter with the law enforcement bureau, Director Mahesh," Arvind said.

He said he was thanking them, but his tone wasn't very pleasant.

We didn't address Director Mahesh as that before; it sounds too formal now.

Rodon shrugged it off and smiled, saying, "Of course, we're friends."

Arvind was somewhat annoyed, and still considered himself a friend.

Do you have friends like that?
Taking advantage of his troubles, they're trying to poach his people. Although other political parties like the People's Party are doing the same, Arvind just doesn't like it.

Of course, he also understood that a large part of the reason for this was that Bagvant and Roton were colluding together.

Arvind wasn't afraid of Bagwant alone.

But now that Rodon has been added to the mix, Bagvant's influence is no longer ordinary.

With Rodon's support, it would be difficult for him to have any influence in Punjab.

In other words, Punjab is now completely under Bagwant's control.

Thinking about this, Arvind sometimes even regretted that letting Bagwant take charge of Punjab's affairs was a terrible mistake.

Unfortunately, there's no going back.

“Of course, we are friends,” Arvind said.

He certainly didn't want to offend Rodon.

Even at his peak, he still had to be on good terms with Rodton.

His situation is not good now; after being tricked by the People's Party, his approval rating has plummeted.

He felt even less confident in front of Rodon.

Despite feeling frustrated, one still had to show respect to Rodon.

“Since we’ve run into each other today, I’d like to have a word with Mr. Arvind,” Rodon said.

“What is it, Director Mahesh? Just say it,” Arvind said.

He knew perfectly well what Rodon was trying to say. Bagvante was there; didn't he understand all of this?

It's all because of his Delhi Afghan Party.

“I’ve heard about what’s going on within the Delhi Afghan Party. Normally, as an outsider, I shouldn’t comment, but given the alliance between the two Afghan parties, I think I can offer some suggestions,” Rodon said.

“Of course, I’ll listen to any suggestions,” Arvind said.

“The Delhi Ayutthaya Party (DA) can’t afford to cause any more trouble right now. The BJP is watching closely. If the DA can’t stabilize quickly, it will only benefit the BJP in the end,” Rodon said. “Besides, the fact that the BJP allowed you to be released on parole this time doesn’t really mean I helped them much. They brought you back to create internal conflict within the DA. I don’t want to see that happen; it would be too tragic. Wouldn’t that just let the BJP’s sinister intentions succeed?”

Arvind's expression changed slightly.

He certainly understood what Rodon was talking about.

But how could he accept what Bagvant had done during this time?

He knew that the People's Party had ill intentions.

His release on parole, coupled with his return, will inevitably lead to changes in the power structure within the Delhi Afghan Party, further destabilizing the organization.

The instability within the Delhi Afghan Party is definitely beneficial to the BJP.

Unfortunately, even knowing these things, he could not remain indifferent to what Bagvant had done.

This is crucial to who holds power in the Delhi Afghan Party.

"I wonder if Director Mahesh has any ideas on how to solve the current problem?" Arvind, being a seasoned politician, quickly regained his composure.

“I think Mr. Bagvante’s recent actions are very appropriate,” Rodton said.

These words nearly made Arvind lose his temper.

He knew, of course, that Bagvante and Rodon were in cahoots. Now that Rodon was so openly supporting Bagvante, what was he trying to do?
Do you want to force yourself to relinquish power?
Bagwant's actions were perfectly appropriate, which means that his behavior was inappropriate.

Who is in charge of the Delhi Afghan Party?
“Don’t get me wrong, I think the current situation is the best for the Delhi Afghan Party.” Roton could certainly understand Arvind’s unease and anger. “The next general election is approaching. If the Delhi Afghan Party is still struggling with personnel changes at this time, then in my opinion, you will probably lose badly in the next general election.”

"Hmph, the rule of Delhi will surely still belong to us," Arvind sneered.

“That’s hard to say,” Roton said with a slight smile. “Take the 2019 general election for example. The BJP won all seven seats in the Delhi parliament. Although you have the power to govern Delhi, you have no advantage in the federal election. It’s probably in jeopardy that you will be able to govern Delhi now, as the BJP is making a strong push.”

There are significant differences between federal elections and local elections. The voters may differ, and even the same voters may have very different voting preferences.

For example, during the general election, the BJP won all seven seats in Delhi.

However, when the Delhi local council elections came around, the Delhi Aam Ahiman Party won the governing power in the region with an absolute majority of seats.

These voters' voting is so absurd that in national elections and local elections, who they vote for is two different things.

In the 2019 general election, the Delhi Aam Ayutthaya Party had only one seat in the Indian Parliament, which it obtained from Punjab.

Although the Delhi Afghan Party has expanded its reach to surrounding states, such as Haryana and Gujarat, it has failed to secure any seats.

As a result, the Delhi Aam Ahiman Party can only be considered a regional party with limited influence across India.

Of course, among regional political parties, the Delhi Aam Ahiman Party is a rather unique one.

After all, they hold power in the Delhi region, and especially since they have also taken over Punjab.

However, this good time was abruptly interrupted by the People's Party, as the arrest of Arvind had a huge impact.
