Prashant Kishor, leader of the Jan Suraaj Party, alleged that Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's JD(U) partially secured electoral success by distributing Rs 10,000 to numerous beneficiaries before the state assembly elections.

Kishor accused the NDA government of allocating Rs 40,000 crore to electioneering budgets, describing it as an exploitation of public funds.

Despite his party failing to secure seats, Kishor vowed ongoing activism, condemning divisive politics and promising a day-long fast to highlight ignored electoral promises.
