Prashant Kishor Slams Nitish-BJP Govt in Bihar, Calls It ‘Lathitantra’

Political strategist Prashant Kishor attacked Bihar’s governance as ‘lathitantra’, citing 80 lathi-charges in 3 years. He highlighted migration woes and criticized BJP over Trump’s India tariffs during his ‘Bihar Badlaav Yatra’ public meeting in Kaimur.

Patna: Prashant Kishore addressed a public meeting in Bhabua of Kaimur district as part of his 'Bihar Badlaav Yatra,' where he fiercely attacked Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and the BJP. Describing the current situation in Bihar as 'lathitantra,' he alleged that in the last three years the government has lathi-charged about 80 times on those protesting.

According to him, if anyone, including teachers, students, or Asha workers, raised their voice against the government, they were brutally crushed. However, he also said that after the advent of Jan Suraj, such incidents have reduced somewhat.

Prashant Kishore described migration from Bihar as the biggest problem of the state and mentioned a painful incident. He gave the example of a 15-year-old teenager from Kishanganj, who was made to work like a slave in Haryana and was not treated even after his hand was cut off.

That boy had to run 150 kilometers on foot to save his life. PK raised questions on the silence of the BJP government of Haryana in this matter and the leaders who come to Bihar to seek votes.

Prashant Kishor also targeted BJP on the issue of US President Donald Trump imposing a 50% tariff on Indian products. He said that till some time ago, BJP leaders and supporters were calling India 'Vishwaguru' and were cheering for Trump.

It was even being claimed that Trump is afraid of Modi. But now the truth has come out, because Trump has imposed the highest tariff on India after China. This clearly shows the reality of BJP's foreign policy and claims.

In short, Prashant Kishor, in his speech, strongly attacked the anti-people policies of the Bihar government, the problem of migration, and the failed foreign policy of the central government. He appealed to the public that now the time has come to get ready to change this system, because the government has only the next three months left.

His message was clear—'The public is no longer ready to tolerate atrocities.'
