Jan Suraaj Party chief Prashant Kishor said that he has charged more than hundred crore as a fee for advising political leaders and their parties during his stint as a poll strategist.
During an election rally for the upcoming by-elections in Bihar, Kishor explained how he funds his campaign and said that he can continue his party's campaign for the next two years with just one such election advice to any political party.
“Ten governments in different states are running on my strategies,” he said.
"Do you think I won't have enough money to set up tents and canopies for my campaign? Do you think I’m that weak? In Bihar, no one has heard of fees like mine. If I advise someone in just one election, my fee is Rs 100 crore or even more. For the next two years, I can continue to fund my campaign with just one such election advice,” he added.
Jan Suraaj has fielded four candidates for the upcoming by-elections in Bihar. Mohammad Amjad is in the poll fray from Belaganj, Jitendra Paswan from Imamganj, Sushil Kumar Singh Kushwaha from Ramgarh, and Kiran Singh from Tarari.
Kishor officially launched the Jan Suraaj Party on October 2 in Patna, marking its transition from a grassroots campaign to a formal political party. Speaking on the occasion, he noted that Jan Suraaj had been active for two to three years and recently received approval from the Election Commission of India.
The party is set to contest all 243 seats in the upcoming Bihar assembly elections, expected in October-November 2025. Kishor has also committed to gender representation, with 40 female candidates in the lineup, as Jan Suraaj seeks to challenge the state’s political landscape.
