The political stir for the Bihar assembly elections has intensified. Meanwhile, political strategist Prashant Kishor has once again given strict warnings about Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP. He has said that the voters of Bihar will take decisions only in terms of their problems and the development of the state, and the agenda running ‘Factory in Gujarat’ will not have any effect here.
Prashant Kishore in his statement made it clear that the people of Bihar are no longer affected by announcements and big promises. He said, “The vote of Bihar will be decided on the issues of Bihar. Any effort that will be successful to impose the model of Gujarat here will not be successful. The public is now aware and conscious of its rights.”
He also added that the voters of Bihar will now give priority to local issues like employment, agriculture, education, health and basic facilities. Prashant Kishore said that if the BJP only tries to implement the development and programs of its Gujarat model in Bihar, then it will not get any support. He says that the voters of Bihar will pay attention to their financial troubles, unemployment and solution to local problems.
Political analysts believe that this statement of Prashant Kishore is not only a warning, but an attempt to underline public thinking in the upcoming assembly elections. He clarified that Bihar’s political and social conditions are different from Gujarat. The voters here are more sensitive and will not easily accept the model imposed from any kind of center.
After this statement, the stir in the political corridors has intensified. It is an indication for BJP and other national parties that it is mandatory to focus on local issues in Bihar, not only development and copying of Gujarat model. Prashant Kishore also said that the people of Bihar can be satisfied not only by big promises and announcements but only with real and concrete development plans.
Experts believe that this statement of Prashant Kishore can make it difficult for the BJP to change the election strategy. If the party is not able to give the right message on local issues, it could affect the vote bank. He warned that the voters of Bihar will no longer be blindly trusting any center-made policies. However, the statement of Prashant Kishore has made it clear that Bihar’s vote will be decided on the issues of Bihar, and an attempt to impose any state copy or policies here will fail. It will be interesting to see how BJP and other parties face this challenge in the upcoming election.
