Prashant Kishor Escalates Bihar Push With New Pledges, Blasts BJP, Congress and RJD

He portrays the race as a choice beyond BJP versus Rahul Gandhi to steer voters toward Jan Suraaj on migration, corruption, failing education.

Overview

  • At a Paliganj rally on August 23, Kishor attacked Lalu Prasad Yadav and questioned the promotion of his son, alleging he did not clear Class 9.
  • Kishor accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of winning Bihar’s votes while channeling development to Gujarat, saying Bihar’s youth migrate for Rs 10,000–12,000 jobs.
  • He pledged to bring back 50 lakh youths by creating local employment, to start a Rs 2,000 monthly pension for everyone over 60 from December 2025, and to cover private-school fees for children under 15 until government schools improve.
  • Arguing that the BJPRahul Gandhi rivalry is a blame game, he urged voters to back Jan Suraaj, which he says is focused on migration, corruption and a weak education system.
  • Continuing his Bihar Badlaav Yatra across villages, he is positioning Jan Suraaj as a third option as elections later this year pit the NDA against an RJD-led opposition backed by Congress and Left parties.
