Speculation grows over Prashant Kishor’s possible Telangana role
Political strategist Prashant Kishor, popularly known as PK, is once again at the center of political speculation, this time in the Telugu states. The buzz follows reports suggesting that he may be returning to his earlier role as an election strategist after the limited success of his own political venture in Bihar.
Kishor had launched the Jan Suraaj Party after spending nearly three years engaging directly with voters across Bihar. Despite the extensive groundwork, the party failed to make a significant electoral impact, triggering sharp political commentary and questions about Kishor’s next move.
Focus shifts to Kavitha’s political plans
Attention has now turned to Telangana, where K. Kavitha is reportedly accelerating efforts to launch a new political party. Already known to the public through the Jagriti platform, Kavitha is said to be pushing ahead with organisational groundwork and internal preparations.
Reports indicate that multiple committees have been formed to streamline the party’s launch process. The broader objective, as suggested in political circles, is to position the proposed outfit as an alternative political force in Telangana ahead of the 2028 Assembly elections.
Reports of repeated meetings fuel rumors.
It is at this juncture that Kishor’s name has resurfaced. According to political chatter, Kishor has met Kavitha several times over the past two months. These interactions have led to claims that he may be advising her on party structure, messaging, slogans, and broader political positioning.
Neither side has issued a formal statement confirming these reports. However, the possibility of Kishor returning to a strategist’s role has revived debate over his effectiveness following his Bihar experience.
Questions over past track record
Critics have pointed out that Kishor was unable to convert his grassroots campaign in Bihar into electoral success for Jan Suraaj. This has prompted questions on whether his strategic inputs can deliver results for a new party in Telangana.
Kishor has also previously worked with Bharat Rashtra Samithi and its leader, K. Chandrashekar Rao, particularly during efforts to expand the party’s national footprint. That initiative did not translate into sustained political gains, and the BRS later lost power in Telangana.
Unanswered questions and political curiosity
For now, it remains unclear whether Kishor is formally advising Kavitha or whether the meetings are exploratory in nature. The absence of official confirmation has only added to the speculation.
What is evident is that Kishor’s renewed presence in Telangana has caught political observers’ attention, raising fresh questions about strategy, leadership, and the road ahead for emerging political formations.
