“Those who believe in the ideology of Gandhi cannot stand with the supporters of Godse. I had an ideological difference with him over it,” said Kishor who along with former Rajya Sabha member Pavan K Varma was sacked from the JD(U) for opposing Citizenship Amendment Act.

Poll strategist Prashant Kishor says he still has good relations with party chief Nitish Kumar. “I have had good relations with Nitish Ji. I have immense respect for him. I will not question his decision,” said Kishor.

Kishor was expelled from the ruling JD(U) last month for targeting Union Home Minister Amit Shah and criticizing JD(U)’s ambivalence of NPR and NRC. Even after he tried to sort out differences with Chief Minister Nitish Kumar over NPR and NRC, his continued attack of Shah made the JD(U) expel him along with another dissenting leader, Pavan Kumar Varma.

Hitting out at Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar for following the words of Gujarat leaders, an indirect reference to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Amit Shah, Kishor said the state needs a strong leader and “not someone who has to take orders from others.

Kishor also launched a campaign titled ‘Baat Bihar Ki’ that will begin on February 20. While he has categorically ruled out collaborating with Tejashwi Yadav-led opposition alliance, Congress sources have confirmed that Kishor may play a key role for the party during the 2020 Assembly elections.
