Prashant Kishor folds hands, says he would “never go with the Congress”

Poll strategist Prashant Kishor today folded his hands and said that he would never go with the Congress party. He was quoted in reports saying said that the Congress would go down and take everyone with it.

Some months ago, there were talks that Kishor might join the Congress. He said this in Valishali as part of his tour through Bihar villages to get public views on an alternative government.

“In 2015, we won Bihar. In 2017, we won Punjab. In 2019 Jagan Mohan Reddy won in Andhra Pradesh, and we won in Tamil Nadu and Bengal. In 11 years, we lost only one election, the 2017 Uttar Pradesh election. That is why I decided never to work with the Congress,” said Kishor with folded hands. He added that “the current Congress bosses are such that they will go down and take everyone with them. If I go, I will also drown.”
