With less than two weeks to go for the Bihar assembly elections, Rashtriya Lok Morcha (RLM) chief Upendra Kushwaha on Monday downplayed the electoral challenge posed by Jan Suraaj party, founded Prashant Kishor for the Bihar assembly polls.

In an exclusive interview with ANI, Kushwaha said that that the there is a direct contest between the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) and the Mahagathbandhan in the assembly poll.

“I don’t see Jan Suraaj anywhere… In the battle of Bihar, on one side there is NDA, and on the other side Mahagathbandhan,” he said.

His remarks came in response to Prashant Kishor’s statement on October 18, where Kishor claimed that the opposition alliance (Mahagathbandhan) would finish in third place, positioning his party Jan Suraaj as the main challenger to the NDA.
