Jan Suraaj Founder Prashant Kishor To Launch ‘Bihar Badlaav Yatra’ From May 20, Will Cover 240 Seats In 120 Days

Jehanabad: Jan Suraaj founder Prashant Kishor announced that 'Bihar Badlaav Yatra' will be launched from Sitab Diara village, which is in Chhapra district, on May 20.

Kishor said that the goal of the yatra would be to meet as many people as possible and appeal to them to vote for a "change".

"From May 20, I will start the 'Bihar Badlaav Yatra' from Sitab Diara, the birthplace of Loknayak Jayaprakash Narayan. In 120 days, we will visit 240 assembly constituencies. We will try to meet as many people as possible and appeal to them to vote for change...." Kishor said while addressing the media.

Earlier this week, Kishor shared his journey from a political strategist to a leader dedicated to public welfare.

After stepping away from his position as a political advisor, Kishor said that he has started on a new mission focused on enhancing the quality of life for individuals in his community.

"My name is Prashant Kishor. I am not a political leader. I am the son of an ordinary family in Bihar. My grandfather used to drive a bullock cart here in Bihar, and he was a labourer. My father was a government doctor...People tell me that in the last 10 years, whoever's hands I held, whoever I advised, emerged victorious and became king...However, after doing that for 10 years, I left that job three years ago...I led tall leaders and big parties to victory in 10 years, but that doesn't change the lives of the public. So I left...I felt that when God has blessed me with this knowledge and power that lives of those whom I advise change, that they emerge victorious and become king, I thought I should advise the people of Bihar once, that I should hold your hands so that your life changes too..," he said.

On April 16, the Election Commission of India (ECI) began preparations for the upcoming Bihar assembly elections, with over 200 booth-level agents participating in a national-level training programme at the India International Institute of Democracy and Election Management in Delhi.

According to sources, the ECI has stepped up efforts to conduct a smooth, free, and fair election set to take place later this year.
