Former JanSuraj Nominee Bhuvan Jhha Announces Independent Run, Cites Insult

In a striking turn of events, former JanSuraj nominee Bhuvan Jhha declared his intention to contest the Bihar Legislative Council election as an independent candidate. Jhha’s announcement followed a meeting in Madipur where he says he was subjected to “demeaning treatment” by senior party members, including Prashant Kishor.

The candidate detailed that during the meeting, his attempts to address the gathering were blocked, and his accompanying teachers were not allowed to record the proceedings. He further claimed that his name was never mentioned when Kishor addressed the audience, indicating a deliberate omission.

Jhha’s decision adds a new variable to the Tirhut Teacher constituency, where the vote share of teachers has historically been crucial. The development could force JanSuraj to reconsider its campaign tactics and may influence the overall balance of power in the council.
