The by-election of Bankipur Assembly of Bihar is going to be very interesting. Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and Jansuraj have announced their candidates. BJP has once again surprised everyone on this seat. BJP had earlier made Abhishek Kumar Sinha its candidate but later Abhishek Kumar withdrew his name citing family reasons. After which BJP has fielded Neeraj Kumar Sinha as a new candidate on Friday.

As soon as BJP announced the new candidate, the rhetoric in Bihar politics also intensified. Jansuraj Party founder and Bankipur seat candidate Prashant Kumar has taken a dig at this development and made serious allegations against the BJP.

Jansuraj candidate Prashant Kishore said that BJP is scared of him. There is no power in front of people’s power, till now people used to run away due to fear of BJP, but this is the first time that justice has been done that BJP candidate ran away. Accusing the BJP, he said that these people used to get the nomination canceled by horse-trading, get anyone to join their party and now their candidate left the field in the very first fight. He said that whatever one does to whomever one does, one will get the same back.
