Patna, Oct 1 || Prashant Kishor, chief of the Jan Suraaj campaign, is set to launch his political party on October 2, offering a new political option for the people of Bihar.
Sources said that a mega event will be held at the veterinary college ground in Patna, where Kishor will officially announce the party’s name, constitution, and a 25-member leadership team, including the party president.
Kishor has stated that he will not hold any official post within the party and will continue focusing on his ongoing "Padyatra," which is set to conclude in Supaul and move into Araria after October 2.
The leaders of Jan Suraaj expect a large turnout of up to 50 lakh supporters for the party's foundation event. Kishor has been vocal about Bihar's long-standing caste and religion-based politics, dominated by figures like Lalu Prasad Yadav, Nitish Kumar, and the BJP.
A native of Rohtas district and belonging to the Brahmin community, Kishor aims to move beyond the caste-driven politics that has long dominated the state.
