The Indian Political Action Committee (I-PAC) head -Prashant Kishor, who is constructing Mamata Banerjee’s Trinamool Congress’ election campaign, prophesied that the Bharatiya Janat Party (BJP) will strive to cross-double digit mark in West Bengal Assembly Elections 2021. He also offered to quit Twitter if his prediction is proven wrong.
Kishor on his official Twitter account tweeted- “For all the hype AMPLIFIED by a section of supportive media, in reality, BJP will struggle to CROSS DOUBLE DIGITS in #WestBengal
PS: Please save this tweet and if BJP does any better I must quit this space!”
He tweeted a day after Union Home Minister and senior BJP leader Amit Shah ended his two-day Bengal visit.
Prashant Kishor had prepared the profoundly victorious campaign for Narendra Modi-led BJP in the 2014 Lok Sabha polls. Consequently, the I-PAC chief is trusted to accomplish the poll campaign of the grand collaboration led by Nitish Kumar during Bihar Assembly Elections 2015.
He also launched YSR Congress chief and YSR Jagan Mohan Reddy and Congress leader Amarinder Singh to rule with the remarkable majority during Andhra Pradesh Assembly and Punjab Assembly elections each.
BJP national general secretary Kailash Vijayvargiya, in reply to Kishor’s tweet, said the country would end up losing a poll strategist after Bengal elections- “Given the ongoing BJP tsunami in Bengal; once the new government is formed, the country will have to lose an election strategist.”
Assembly elections are likely to be held in West Bengal in April-May.
