In the National Convention on 25 December 2022, the election of the National Executive was conducted as per the party constitution, in which the 5th National President of the party, Sushil Ratnakar was elected and members of the new National Executive were also elected. All the newly elected members and the National President were made to take a pledge to strengthen the organisation of the party. But in the Panchayat elections, two candidates of the party had won the election of the Block chief. Similarly, they were successful in winning the election of the District Panchayat member also. The health of the Honorable National President Honorable Shri Ramnath Priyadarshi Ji was also bad for more than a year, he was undergoing treatment at Swaroop Rani Prayagraj, due to his age of 84 years, he started getting weak and suffering from various diseases in his body, ultimately he passed away on 21st October 2022, due to which the party could not participate in the 2022 assembly elections and 2024 Lok Sabha elections, a convention was convened on 25th December 2022 in which the fifth National President Engineer Sushil Ratnakar was selected through election and a new National Executive was also formed and under the leadership of the newly elected National President, candidates contested the 2024 by-election from Majhava and Sisamau assembly in which the nomination of the candidate from Sisamau was rejected and Prakash Chand Maurya was made the candidate from Majhava assembly, he fought the election strongly, the party was afraid that his nomination would also be rejected, due to the tireless struggle of the party workers, success was achieved in saving the nomination.[1]
