Prashant Kishor Says Rahul Gandhi Lacks Sway With Bihar's Gen Z

He casts Congress as marginal outside Seemanchal, with youth concerns centered on unemployment and migration.

Overview

  • In a Nov 9 interview with ANI, Prashant Kishor said Bihar's Gen Z would not heed Rahul Gandhi's calls.
  • He argued Gandhi has little knowledge of Bihar and appears only briefly for "a couple of show bites."
  • Kishor maintained Congress is largely absent in Bihar except in parts of Seemanchal, where it retains some support.
  • He rejected talk of a Nepal-style youth uprising, saying Bihar's politics will not turn on a single call to protest.
  • He said joblessness and migration dominate youth priorities, as phase one saw record turnout with phase two on Nov 11 and counting on Nov 14.
