Patna January 25, 2025: Prashant Kishor, chief of the Jan Suraj Party, launched a fierce critique of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, challenging his leadership abilities and questioning his mental and physical capacity to govern.
Speaking to the media in Patna, Kishor issued a bold challenge, stating. “If Nitish Kumar can name his cabinet members and their respective departments without looking at papers, I will withdraw my entire campaign and stand in his support again.”
Kishor expressed concern over Nitish Kumar’s mental state, alleging that the Chief Minister is “mentally and physically tired” and no longer capable of leading Bihar effectively. He emphasized that Kumar’s condition makes it difficult for him to make decisions and manage the state government.
Prashant Kishor criticized the law and order of Bihar:
Prashant Kishor also criticized the deteriorating law and order in Bihar, tying it to the presence of mafias and alleged ties between criminals and those in power. Referring to the recent Mokama incident, Kishor remarked. “When there are sand traders, liquor traders, and officers ruling in Bihar, how can we expect smooth law and order? Everyone knows what is the relationship between criminals and the people in power. When the Chief Minister is not mentally capable of making decisions, such incidents are inevitable.”
Prediction About Nitish Kumar’s Future:
With Nitish Kumar’s current tenure as Chief Minister set to end in 10 months, Kishor predicted this would mark the end of his time in power.
“Let him enjoy his remaining time in the Chief Minister’s residence because he will not become the Chief Minister of Bihar again,” Kishor asserted, signalling his belief that Kumar’s political influence is waning.
These remarks from Prashant Kishor reflect a continued and intensifying critique of Nitish Kumar’s administration, targeting issues of governance, law and order, and the Chief Minister’s capability to lead the state effectively.
