Merge of Youth Congress article

Bihar Pradesh Youth Congress is basically just an (unsourced) list of committee members. While it does campaign etc and it is easy to find news sources, the thing is fundamentally a part of and politically identical to the Bihar Pradesh Congress Committee. Since BPCC already deals with the politics and already mentions the BPYC, I see no need for two articles. - Sitush (talk) 05:01, 10 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've redirect the BPYC article to this one. We mention the BYPC here already and there was nothing sourced in the article other than that the thing exists. - Sitush (talk) 16:30, 4 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Chief Ministers, Governors etc

I don't understand the point of the lists of chief ministers, governors etc contained in this article. Yes, they are people from Bihar who are/were members of the INC but the same could be said of every INC member who has been elected to the Bihar legislative assembly..

As I see it, the article should be about the organisation, its history, structure etc. As it is, it seems mostly to be a vanity piece that attempts to reflect in the "glory" of people who have held high political office. - Sitush (talk) 20:43, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I would prefer having the list.CM (and esp. Governor)≠ordinary assembly-elects.Winged Blades^Godric 06:57, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Chief Ministers are chosen by the parties but they are not elected to that office. They are normal MLAs who go through the normal election process at constituency level but happen to be favoured by their party for the role of CM, either at the time of election or mid-term if, for example, someone dies in office or resigns. Governors, I accept, are different but I still don't see what particular relevance to BPCC has to their elevation: they are appointed at national level, I think, and not by the party either. - Sitush (talk) 12:08, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Sitush:--Spot-on w.r.t CMs.As to Governors, in all fairness, they are appointed by the parties (the one ruling at Centre).it's just sort of political-asylum for respected (powerful) politicians or government-favored-bureaucrats to spend their last-days.One's clout in the political circles is obviously a factor.~ Winged Blades^Godric 16:42, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
