Jan Suraaj Party founder Prashant Kishor has denied any alliance with Chirag Paswan’s Lok Janshakti Party ahead of the Bihar elections. Dismissing speculation of a tie-up, Kishor said his party will contest all seats independently. His remarks come a day after Chirag Paswan indicated that “doors are open” for Kishor — a comment seen as part of seat-sharing pressure tactics within the NDA. Kishor is expected to announce his party’s list of candidates on October 9.
