Prashant Kishor Announces 3,000-KM Bihar ‘Padyatra’, Says No Party For Now

Mumbai: Political strategist Prashant Kishor on Thursday said that he will carry out a 3,000-kilometre ‘padyatra’ in Bihar beginning October 2 amid speculations that he is going to form a new political party.

Interacting with the media after his tweet that he would “go to the Real Masters”… “to better understand the issues and make way for the good governance of the people”, Prashant Kishor said that whatever he has would be dedicated to Bihar.

He also announced that he would start a 3,000-km padyatra (March) from October 2 to meet as many people as possible.

The election strategist further said that there are no elections in Bihar in the near future, so a political party was not yet part of his plan.

ANI quoted him as saying, “In next 3-4 months, I’ll meet many eminent persons of Bihar who can help build an idea of ‘Jan Suraaj’ (good governance) and make them part of it. I’ll embark on 3000 kms ‘Padyatra’ across Bihar from October 2, Gandhi Ashram, West Champaran.”

When asked about the Congress party, the election strategist said, “Congress needs to decide how they want to act going forward, not me. Whatever decision they took was important and I did too. Congress doesn’t need any Prashant Kishor, the party has even more capable people. They know what they have to do.”
