'Bihar was Switzerland for Tejashwi Yadav': Prashant Kishor's comeback

Prashant Kishor’s new outfit Jan Suraaj will contest Bihar state assembly elections in 2025

New Delhi:

Jan Suraaj leader Prashant Kishor has criticised Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tejashwi Yadav’s claim that Bihar is lagging behind on key development indicators despite having a dual-engine government.

Mr Yadav yesterday alleged that the BJP is only after power and is ignoring the concerns of the public.

“Bihar is number one in unemployment, poverty, inflation and corruption… Bihar is also number one in crime… Despite there being a government at the Centre and the state, nothing has been corrected… BJP people are just greedy for power. They have nothing to do with the public,” said Mr. Yadav, the Leader of the Opposition in the Bihar Assembly.

He called Chief Minister Nitish Kumar a “tired Chief Minister”. The statement came after Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Kumar Singh alleged that Mr Yadav was silent when Hindus were attacked in Bangladesh, terming it “appeasement politics.”

A day later, Prashant Kishor, a former election strategist for many political parties and now leader of the emerging Jan Suraaj party, said it was “laughable” when Mr Yadav talks about development.

“I can comment when Tejashwi Yadav talks about caste, extortion, liquor mafia, criminality… but when Tejashwi Yadav talks about the development model, it is laughable. They have been in power for the last 15 years. He does not know what GDP and GDP growth are, and he talks about the development story of Bihar,” Kishor told reporters.

“As far as crime is concerned, when Tejashwi Yadav was Deputy Chief Minister six months ago, Bihar was Switzerland for him and after six months Bihar has become a gutter… If Nitish Kumar joins Mahagathbandhan today, Bihar will look great for him again…” Mr Kishor said.

He has said that his new team, Jan Suraaj, will contest the Bihar elections in 2025.

Mr Kishor had once worked with Nitish Kumar, but in January the former election strategist called up the Bihar chief minister.paltumaar” and said that flip-flops have become a part of his politics. Experts have speculated that Jan Suraaj might support some candidates in the next elections in Bihar.

Bihar demands special economic package from Centre. The Union Budget 2024 announced a Rs 58.9 crore growth package for Bihar.
