Poll strategist Prashant Kishor’s meeting with Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on September 13 appears to have been a flop for Mr. Kumar as the former on Thursday asserted that he was “committed to his Jan Suraj movement and tour across Bihar.
Mr. Kumar, earlier on Wednesday, had said the discussion was general and Mr. Kishor on Thursday said the “meeting should be viewed as a social-political courtesy call”.
“During the meeting with Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, I put forward a view on prohibition in the State and how it is clearly not effective on the ground”, said Mr Kishor in a press release. He further said that he stood firmly with his vision of Jan Suraj and would be travelling across Bihar through the padyatra from October 2 and will be meeting people to take right people forward for the betterment of Bihar.
