Prashant Kishor, the political strategist-turned-activist leading Jan Suraaj, has shaken the political landscape yet again. In his latest explosive interview with Times Now, Kishor went all out against the BJP and Bihar’s ruling elite, directly targeting Deputy Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary while announcing sweeping promises if his party wins the upcoming election. With sharp one-liners, sensational allegations, and bold commitments, Kishor’s words are already dominating headlines.
BJP in the Dock: “Most Corrupt Since Independence”
Kishor launched his attack by branding the NDA government in Bihar as “the most corrupt since Independence.” While refraining from accusing Nitish Kumar personally, he alleged that leaders around him have created an “anarchy of corruption.” He highlighted how BJP functionaries, including Dilip Jaiswal, gained control of a medical college in Kishanganj, hinting at misuse of power. He dared the BJP to sue him if his claims were false, throwing down a public gauntlet.
Targeting Samrat Choudhary: From Murder Case to Fake Degree
Kishor’s most sensational jabs were directed at Deputy CM Samrat Choudhary. He alleged that Choudhary is implicated in an over two-decade-old murder case and demanded his immediate removal and arrest. He further questioned the authenticity of Choudhary’s educational records, pointing out contradictory affidavits — one stating he studied only till class 7, another claiming a PhD from California. Kishor thundered: “Tell us when you passed class 10 or class 12 before calling yourself a doctor.”

On Caste Census: Representation Beyond Slogans
Addressing Bihar’s caste realities, Kishor stated, “Caste is a truth, but not the only truth.” He criticized the government’s caste survey, arguing it created new feudal structures instead of real empowerment. Highlighting that only 3% Dalits, 5% EBCs, and 7% Muslims pass class 12 in Bihar, Kishor promised that education and politics under Jan Suraaj would reflect true proportional representation. He insisted existing job quotas would remain but vowed to expand opportunities in education and governance.
The Big Promise: Ending Bihar’s Liquor Ban in One Hour
Perhaps Kishor’s loudest announcement was his vow to repeal Bihar’s controversial liquor prohibition within one hour of taking power. Calling it a “milking cow for politicians, bureaucrats, and police,” he said the ban has fueled illegal trade and corruption while depriving the state of ₹20,000 crore annually. Kishor pledged to redirect this revenue into education, infrastructure, and public welfare, “Transforming prohibition into progress!“
Land Reforms and Education: Core Agenda
Kishor placed land reforms at the center of his manifesto, noting that 60% of Bihar’s population is landless. He promised redistribution and legal measures to end inequality. Alongside, he outlined an education-first model where caste groups get fair representation in higher studies. “If 10 lakh children pass class 12, two lakh should be SC,” he declared, underscoring his intent to match numbers with opportunities.
A Direct Challenge to BJP and Nitish Kumar
Kishor didn’t hold back in mocking Nitish Kumar’s fading influence, saying the CM is “as good as over.” On BJP’s narrative of illegal immigrants, Kishor ridiculed their claims, asking how infiltrators cross borders if the Centre is serious about security. He also dismissed Rahul Gandhi’s “vote chori” campaign, contrasting Gandhi’s elite rhetoric with his own barefoot padyatra across Bihar.
A War Cry for Change
Kishor’s interview ended with a stark choice for Bihar’s voters: continue with “expired medicine” of traditional parties or embrace his Jan Suraaj Party as the “new cure.” From demanding Samrat Choudhary’s arrest to tearing down the liquor ban, Kishor has positioned himself as the uncompromising challenger ready to shake Bihar’s political order.
His words have already triggered a storm — and if he can translate them into ground action, Bihar could be on the cusp of a dramatic political reshuffle!
