New Delhi: In a powerful move, political strategist-turned-activist Prashant Kishor officially launched his political party, Jan Suraaj Party, in Patna on Wednesday. The event, attended by several prominent figures, was marked by Kishors passionate address, urging people to unite against the mistreatment of Biharis across the country. He called on the crowd to chant Jai Bihar loudly enough to reach Delhi, Bengal, Tamil Nadu, and other states where Bihari citizens have faced abuse and violence.You need to raise Jai Bihar so loud that no one ever uses Bihari as an insult. Your voice must reach Delhi, Bengal, Tamil Nadu, and every place where Bihari children have been mistreated, Kishor emphasized, referencing recent incidents in Bengal where students from Bihar were harassed.Jan Suraaj: A movement for changePrashant Kishor explained that Jan Suraaj began as a campaign to address the political void in Bihar, aiming to end years of political helplessness. He stressed the need for a new political alternative to replace the fear-based voting patterns driven by fear of Lalu Prasads regime and the lack of viable choices.Criticism of Nitish KumarKishor did not hold back from attacking Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, claiming he was unfit to govern the state. Nitish Kumar is neither physically nor mentally in the right condition to lead Bihar, he said, likening the BJPs support for Nitish to Congress past alliance with Lalu Yadav, which he claims led to Congress downfall in the state. Kishor warned the BJP that their backing of Nitish Kumar could cost them politically, saying it was a “political compulsion” that would backfire.
