Patna: In a massive setback for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Jan Suraaj founder Prashant Kishor has defeated BJP’s Neeraj Kumar from the Bankipur Assembly seat of Bihar.
The by-election in the Bankipur Assembly seat was necessitated following the resignation of BJP national president Nitin Nabin, who gave up the seat in April upon election to the Rajya Sabha. Notably, the BJP has fielded low-key youth wing leader Neeraj Kumar Sinha.
