Overview

  • Former BJP MP Uday Singh has been unanimously appointed as the first national president of Prashant Kishor's Jan Suraaj Party, strengthening its organizational structure.
  • The Jan Suraaj Party is set to contest all 243 seats in the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections, aiming to challenge traditional political alliances in the state.
  • RCP Singh, a former Union minister and ex-JD(U) national president, merged his party Aap Sabki Awaz with Jan Suraaj, marking his fourth party affiliation in two years.
  • Prashant Kishor launched a statewide signature campaign to highlight unfulfilled government promises but faced resistance when local authorities blocked his entry into Nitish Kumar's native village, Kalyan Bigha.
  • Established parties like JD(U) and RJD have criticized the merger and campaign, with leaders accusing Jan Suraaj of being a BJP-backed initiative.
