BJP state president Sanjay Sarawagi condemned Prashant Kishor’s alleged comments on Chief Minister Samrat Chaudhary, calling them violent and irresponsible, and accused Jan Suraj founder of incitement.
The political debate in Bihar intensified after Prashant Kishor was reported to have made a sharp remark about newly‑elected Chief Minister Samrat Chaudhary. The comment, which was circulated in party circles, sparked a swift response from the state BJP leadership.
BJP state president Sanjay Sarawagi described the alleged statement as "violent language" and "irresponsible politics," adding that it resembled a "suit‑booted, upgraded version of the RJD’s jungle‑rule" narrative. He accused the founder of the Jan Suraj movement of stoking communal tension and urged political parties to maintain decorum.
The controversy has drawn attention from both opposition and ruling parties, though neither Prashant Kishor nor his campaign team has issued a formal clarification. Analysts say the episode reflects the heightened sensitivities surrounding Bihar’s recent electoral outcomes and the broader contest for political legitimacy in the state.
