Jan Suraaj Party founder Prashant Kishor, speaking in Bihar's Mithila region, addressed the local Brahmins, questioning their economic distress despite having elected numerous Brahmin representatives over the years. He encouraged them to focus on education and scholarship instead of wielding political power. Invoking Lord Parshuram, Prashant Kishor emphasized that Brahmins' true strength lies in wisdom and knowledge rather than physical force. Reminding the community of their past support from Muslims, he criticized their alignment with the BJP and subsequent alienation of the Muslim community. The speech, made at a gathering in Darbhanga district on November 5, has sparked debate, with some appreciating his candor while others are critical. Prashant Kishor's remarks come after two significant electoral victories for the Jan Suraaj Party, signaling their efforts to expand their influence and challenge the BJP in Bihar politics.
