Day 515

 In my last post, I wrote about the present political situation of Bihar. But there are few more factors which I didn’t mention in my last post. Well, it was not possible to mention all things in a single post. So, I just wrote about what was the scenario in Bihar in the last 35 years.

 

Actually, 35 years is a very long time. An entire generation started turning towards middle age. But in these 35 years, many generations have migrated from Bihar. Believe me, that loss isn’t going to be recovered. All the major industrialists have left the state and have put manufacturing units in other states. The students who went for higher studies didn’t return to Bihar and now they are settled in other parts of India as well as the world. One thing is sure that those who have migrated Bihar aren’t returning to Bihar neither is their next generation. 

But now, there has been entry of a new political party called Jan Suraj headed by Prashant Kumar. Well, Prashant Kumar aka PK isn’t a new name for Bihar politics. He was a political analyst who has worked with BJP, RJD, JD(U) and Congress. In 2014, he was attached with BJP. Its been said that he was responsible for election campaign for BJP nationwide. Chai pe charcha is one of his brainchild which helped BJP to have political debate at grassroot level. This helped BJP in the election which resulted in BJP led NDA government at the centre. In 2015, during Bihar state assembly election, Prashant Kumar helped the coalition of JD(U), RJD and Congress party. This time, JD(U) formed government with RJD and Congress. 

Now, Prashant Kumar isn’t attached with any political parties. Although, he was contacted by Udhav Thackeray before Maharashtra state assembly election but Prashant Kumar refused his services. Prashant Kumar initiated a programme in Bihar called Jan Suraj through which he began a tour of entire Bihar and started awareness amongst voters in Bihar. Now he has started his own political party. The way he has toured in state has started creating a base for him also. He has gone through villages across the state. I think this time he is using his political analyst power for himself. 

Actually, with the entry of Prashant Kumar, a new angle in upcoming election. So, its going to be an interesting election this time. Every political party is going to lure voters in their favour.
