  • Prashant Kishor, newly elected MLA for Bankipur in Bihar, pledged to secure private sector jobs for 10,000 local youths within two years.
  • He plans to utilize his national network to connect qualified young people with employment opportunities across India.
  • Kishor also committed to improving local education and social welfare programs, while condemning police actions against student protesters.

Newly elected Bankipur MLA Prashant Kishor has promised to create private sector jobs for at least 10,000 young people in his constituency within the next two years. Kishor, who founded the Jan Suraaj Party, stated he would leverage his extensive contacts nationwide to help qualified, unemployed youth find work.

If your children are educated yet unemployed, bring their CVs to our office. We will arrange jobs for at least 10,000 of them within the next two years. Through the big contacts I have, and the people I have helped in the past, I will make sure they get job in different parts of the country.

During a public address in Bankipur, Kishor urged parents to bring their children's resumes to his office, assuring them that job placements would be arranged. While he aims to facilitate jobs within Bihar once his party is in power, he noted that for the time being, placements would be available both within and outside the state.

Beyond job creation, Kishor outlined plans to enhance the quality of education in government schools, aiming for improvements within a year. He also committed to providing food grains and social security pensions for those in need. Kishor further condemned recent police actions against protesting students in Delhi and Jharkhand, warning that unresolved issues could fuel further unrest.

Within a year, the quality of education in government schools will be improved to an extent that people will enrol their children in those institutions. If it does not happen, the responsibility of getting them enrolled in private schools and paying fees will fall on Prashant Kishor.

Kishor was elected MLA in a by-election for the Bankipur assembly seat, which became vacant after the BJP president resigned following his election to the Rajya Sabha. His focus now shifts to fulfilling his electoral promises, including job creation and educational reform.

Lathi charge occurred in both New Delhi and Jharkhand, but the governments cannot intimidate the youth with the fear of lathis. There is an undercurrent force which, if problems are not solved in due time, will keep spreading.
