Jan Suraaj Party founder Prashant Kishor has claimed that his party will win the Patna Graduates’ and Patna Teachers’ constituencies in the upcoming Bihar Legislative Council elections. His prediction comes alongside promises of employment opportunities for young people and improved pay benefits for teachers.

Prashant Kishor has launched a fresh political attack on Nitish Kumar, claiming the Bihar Chief Minister’s influence has diminished after those who rose politically using his name moved into a new phase.

Three of the four RLM MLAs have decided to support party candidate Ram Pukar Sinha in the Saran Teachers constituency, instead of JD(U) candidate Anand Pushkar, highlighting fresh dissent within the Bihar NDA.

Bihar Congress has appointed Ajay Kumar Paswan as the new head of its Media and Publicity Department, replacing Rajesh Rathod, who is contesting the Tirhut Teachers’ MLC seat as an independent candidate.

Prashant Kishor has promised 10,000 jobs in every graduate constituency and Seventh Pay Commission benefits for teachers if Jan Suraaj candidates win the Bihar MLC elections.

Nishant Kumar has backed JD(U) candidate Neeraj Kumar in the Bihar Legislative Council elections, urging party workers to support the official NDA candidate as Anant Singh continues to campaign for Jan Suraaj nominee Anuj Singh.

Prashant Kishor has stepped up his attack on the JD(U) amid the ongoing Anant Singh-Neeraj Kumar dispute ahead of the Bihar Legislative Council elections, claiming that the party is being weakened and could eventually move closer to the BJP.
