"Prashant Kishor will continue to work for Bihar": Jan Suraaj president Uday Singh

Patna (Bihar) [India], November 15 (ANI): Jan Suraaj Party president Uday Singh stated on Saturday that party founder Prashant Kishore will continue to be involved in politics and will remain committed to working for the development of Bihar.
Speaking to ANI, Singh said, "Certainly, he (Prashant Kishor) will continue to be there (in Bihar). We didn't enter politics at the behest of JD(U); we won't leave at their behest either. We can think of leaving only when we feel that a change has set in in Bihar."

He further alleged the Bihar government's "cash distribution" scheme played a major role in the NDA's sweeping victory. "The reason behind NDA's massive majority is the distribution of money by the Govt. This will put pressure on Bihar's economy. It is beyond my understanding how and when it will come out of this debt cycle," he said.
Despite the setback, Singh said the party remained committed to its agenda. "We are not disheartened. We know what is to be done. We will keep working and fulfil the 'Bihar badlav' that we had spoken about."
Jan Suraaj Party, founded by election strategist-turned-politician Prashant Kishor, faced a major setback in its electoral debut, failing to win a single seat despite contesting nearly all 243 constituencies in the 2025 Bihar Assembly Election.
Kishor officially launched the Jan Suraaj Party on October 2, 2024, in Patna, although the organisation had been active since 2022.
Despite its high-profile launch and extensive statewide outreach, the party could not make a mark, as the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) delivered a landslide win--described as a "tsunami"--sweeping aside both the Mahagathbandhan and new entrants like Jan Suraaj.
The NDA secured 202 out of 243 seats, marking the second time it has crossed the 200-seat mark (the first being in 2010 with 206 seats). The BJP emerged as the single-largest party with 89 seats, followed closely by the JD(U) with 85. Other NDA partners also performed strongly, with LJPRV winning 19, HAMS 5, and Rashtriya Lok Morcha 4.
The Mahagathbandhan witnessed significant losses. The RJD won 25 seats, CPI(ML)(L) 2, IIP 1, and CPI(M) 1. (ANI)
