Managing other political parties till now, the election strategist-turned-politician Prashant Kishor today finally launched his own new political party, "Jan Suraj Party," in Patna.
He argued the state of Bihar is incurring a loss of Rs 20,000 crore every year due to the ban, while liquor mafia continues to earn through illegal trade.
Kishore reportedly highlighted the weaknesses of Andhra CM Jagan Mohan Reddy and how they can be countered.
Prashant Kishor said that there is a need for a "credible face" and mass movement to seek people's vote in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
Talks on joining Congress are only between Gandhis and Kishor. He may join Congress in the next three to four days.
According to the sources, two more such meetings are scheduled in the coming days.
According to sources, Gandhi called an urgent meeting at her residence. Congress leaders Rahul Gandhi, Ambika Soni, Digvijaya Singh, Mallikarjun Kharge and Ajay Maken and KC Venugopal are also present at the meeting with Kishor.
The Congress leadership has held at least two rounds of talks with the political strategist to work specifically for Gujarat where the party is out of power since 1989.
The problem started when some senior party leaders including Party Secretary General Partha Chatterjee and All-India vice President Subrata Bakshi started complaining about their interference into the party's internal decisions. Some leaders even threatened to stop working unless I-PAC stopped interference into the party' internal decisions and the government's work as well.
Kishore with an EPIC number of IUI0686683 has been shown as a permanent resident of Bhabanipur Assembly constituency and has the polling station at Booth No- 222 in Rani Shankari Lane under the constituency.
