Caste survey report Nitish Kumar’s final attempt, says Prashant Kishor

Election strategist Prashant Kishor on October 10 claimed that the caste based survey released by Bihar government is the final attempt of Chief Minister Nitish Kumar at a political survival by dividing society along caste lines. Mr. Kishor also announced if Janata Dal (United) wins even five seats in the Lok Sabha election, he will publicly apologise.

Mr. Kishor said this during his ongoing Jan Suraj Pad-Yatra in Sitamarhi district while interacting with the journalist in Berganiya.

Of the caste survey report, Mr. Kishor said, “Nitish Kumar’s political career is nearing its end, and this is his final attempt to divide society and set it on fire in order to run his affairs. I can state this in writing, based on my political understanding, that if the JD(U) wins even five seats, I will publicly apologise in front of everyone. This is the last attempt which will have no impact.”
