The Bankipura by-election saw Muslim voters and several other communities rally behind Prashant Kishor over the RJD, signalling a major political realignment driven by the desire to defeat the BJP.
After blaming "rigged" polls and "invisible powers" for Jan Suraaj's humiliating Assembly defeat, Prashant Kishor's Bankipur victory suggests elections are won through issues, organisation and groundwork, not post-result excuses
Prashant Kumar Singh, Deputy Commissioner of State Tax in Ayodhya, resigned on Tuesday, citing his conscience. Singh stepped down in protest against public remarks made against the Prime Minister and CM Yogi Adityanath, stating he could no longer serve as a "salaried robot."
Jan Suraaj did not change who gets to govern Bihar, but it did change how competitive, unpredictable, and divided the race became and that influence, even without seats, is now part of the state’s electoral record.
He made a serious allegation, claiming, “Prashant Kishor made me spend around Rs 50 lakh by promising me a ticket, but the ticket was given to someone else.”
Norway's involvement in the region is not merely theoretical. Norwegian diplomats have previously attempted to mediate in Kashmir, presenting themselves as "neutral" facilitators.
The cumulative effect of the policies of the Congress and the RJD governments was that the local industries Bihar were entirely uprooted pushing the state into a dark unending period of poverty.
