In a bold revelation that has captured the attention of political enthusiasts and candidates alike, renowned election strategist Prashant Kishor disclosed the fees he charges for his consulting services during election campaigns. Kishor, who recently ventured into politics by founding the 'Jansuraj Party', stated that he charges upwards of ₹100 crores for advising political parties and leaders on election strategies. During an engaging interaction with members of the Muslim community in Belaganj, Kishor addressed the common inquiries regarding the financial backing for his campaigns. "People often ask me how I manage to fund my campaigns.
The truth is, the strategies I’ve developed have helped form governments in ten states. Do you really think I lack the resources to set up tents and canopies for my campaign? I charge for my expertise, and my fee for a single election consultation can exceed ₹100 crores," he declared confidently. The context of Kishor's comments comes as the political landscape of Bihar intensifies with upcoming by-elections set for November 13. His party, the Jansuraj Party, has fielded candidates in four assembly seats: Mohammad Amjad in Belaganj, Jitendra Paswan in Imamganj, Sushil Kumar Singh Kushwaha in Ramgarh, and Kiran Singh in Tarari.
The results of these elections will be declared on November 23, making the stakes particularly high. Kishor's entry into the political arena has sparked significant discussions, not only regarding his fees but also about his strategies and their effectiveness.
