Jan Suraaj party founder Prashant Kishor declared his new political movement would capture 48 percent of votes in the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections after the Election Commission released the polling schedule. He calculated that his party would secure 28 percent of the votes not claimed by existing alliances in previous elections, plus an additional 10 percent from voters abandoning established coalitions. Kishor embraced criticism that Jan Suraaj functions as a vote-splitting force, stating the party would diminish both major alliances significantly.

The political newcomer framed the two-phase election as a referendum on Bihar's future rather than a choice between established leaders like Modi, Nitish, or Lalu. He projected confidence that Chief Minister Nitish Kumar had conducted his final official ceremony when inaugurating the Patna Metro on Monday. Kishor attributed the reduced election phases to diminishing effectiveness of Prime Minister Modi's campaign rallies, suggesting even the BJP recognized this shift.

Party president Uday Singh welcomed the post-festival timing, anticipating that returning residents would support transformative change in Bihar governance.
