PK officially launches his 'Jan Suraaj Party' in Bihar

Poll strategist-turned-politician Prashant Kishor officially launched his new political party, "Jan Suraaj Party," in Patna on Wednesday. At the launch event, Kishore stated that the party has been active for the past two years and recently received approval from the Election Commission of India.

With the Election Commission's nod, the Jan Suraaj Party is now expected to contest in all constituencies in the next Bihar Assembly elections. In a veiled dig at the Opposition for questioning his party's alleged ties to the BJP, Kishor stated that the Jan Suraaj Party is an "amalgamation of both RSS and minorities."

Addressing the gathering, Prashant Kishor called for a significant overhaul of Bihar’s education system, estimating that Rs 5 lakh crore will be required over the next decade to achieve world-class standards. Speaking on the state’s liquor ban, Kishor argued that the revenue lost annually —approximately Rs 20,000 crore — could instead be directed toward educational reform.

"When the liquor ban is removed, that money won't go into the budget for roads, water, electricity, or security for leaders. It will be used only for building a new education system in Bihar," he said, underscoring the urgency of investing in the state’s future.
