Political strategist Prashant Kishor hit out at Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar with whom he had differnce of opinion on JDU's tie-up with BJP at a press conference in Bihar. Meanwhile, he also announced a new campaign in the state "Baat Bihar Ki.'' Kishor announced that he will be travelling across Bihar for 100 days and campaign against the misgovernance under Nitish rule. Prashant Kishor said on Tuesday, "I am not going anywhere and I am here to work for Bihar. I am inviting young people of Bihar who want to see development and work done in Bihar to join me in this campaign, 'Baat Bihar Ki', to build our state."

"I invite all those who want to see a new Bihar that will not rank below all other states on development ratings. I want to see Bihar climb up the state rankings from the current 22 to 10. I want to make Bihar one of the top 10 states. This campaign will be launched on March 20," announced Prashant Kishor. He also said that Bihar was the poorest state in 2005 and continues to be so and there is no one to question Kumar's governance model.While targeting his ally-turned-foe Nitish Kumar, Prashant Kishor said the JDU chief has done a lot of developmental work for Bihar, yet, the state is still one of the poorest and the young population still has to migrate out of the state to look for livelihood.
