Prashant Kishor Donation: Jan Suraaj Party founder Prashant Kishor, who ended his one-day silent fast at the Bhitiharwa Gandhi Ashram, West Champaran, Bihar on Friday, announced that we would donate 90% of his income over the next five years, as well as all his movable and immovable assets accumulated so far—except for a house in Delhi—to his party for reforming Bihar.

He also appealed to people that if they want to see Bihar reformed, then donate to Jan Suraaj according to their capacity, or at least Rs 1,000. At a press conference after breaking his fast, he pledged to strengthen the people's movement, inspired by Mahatma Gandhi.

"I am appealing to all individuals to donate one thousand rupees to support this campaign. I will meet those who do," he said.

State President Manoj Bharti, Organization General Secretary Subhash Kushwaha, Kishore Kumar, Munna Pandey, Ritesh Pandey, RK Mishra, Abhijay Singh, and other party leaders were present on the occasion.

Prashant Kishor stated that the core philosophy of Jan Suraaj is that simply changing the government or power doesn't change the system; it's essential to bring about change within society.

PK stated that over the past two and a half years, Jan Suraaj has emerged as a large public family. He stated that caste divisions, the power of money, and religious polarisation have long dominated Bihar's politics, the effects of which are clearly visible in elections.

Bihar's society possesses immense strength, but it will take time to bridge the gap that has developed over the years, he said, stating that change in Bihar is possible only when society becomes aware and understands its rights and duties. "Employment, education, and migration can be stopped in Bihar. In independent India, everyone, whether rich or poor, has the right to vote," he added.

Democracy Will Die If..: PK

PK said that Nitish Kumar is a personally honest leader, but what is this definition of honesty? Disregarding the Constitution is also dishonesty. Regarding the 10,000 rupees given to poor women, he said that if this system is implemented, democracy will end in the country. No one will lose an election, he added. Any government can take a loan or distribute money, Kishor said.
