Prashant Kishor has openly challenged Nitish Kumar to undertake a Yatra without the protection of police and security forces.
“I am doing Padyatra for 18 months without any security or police protection but I want to challenge Nitish Kumar to do the same. I openly challenge Nitish Kumar to remove security around him and walk into any village or Panchayat of Bihar. He does not have the courage to walk in any Panchayat without security forces,” Kishor said.
“I do not have any party and not asking for votes from anyone. I am not saying to make me the Chief Minister. My Jan Suraj Padyatra is to create awareness among the people of Bihar. I just want to say to the people of Bihar to rise above caste boundaries and vote for political parties that care about your children,” he said.
