Will support if Lalu declares any other leader as CM candidate except Tejashwi : Prashant

Patna, May 5 (UNI) Jan Suraaj founder Prashant Kishor has declared that he is prepared to support any other leader except Tejaswi Prasad Yadav, if RJD supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav declares him as CM candidate for 2025 Bihar Assembly election to be held in October- November this year.

Kishor popularly known as PK said that Lalu could never think beyond his family members for the post of CM. His so called socialism was confined only to his family members and no one else, he pointed out.

The Jan Suraaj founder said that he was prepared to support any other person if Lalu declared him as CM candidate except Tejashwi Prasad Yadav. There were so many talented leaders in RJD having strong political understanding but they were not fit for CM candidate, in eyes of Lalu, he remarked.

PK also came down heavily on Congress for its reluctance in accepting Tejashwi as CM candidate of Grand Alliance , saying the party had no courage to oppose the decision of Lalu Prasad.

Congress would have to support Tejashwi as CM candidate and the party was just trying to use the issue for bargaining of seats during the seat sharing talks among constituents of Grand Alliance, he pointed out.
