Patna: In a surprising turn of events, popular Bhojpuri actress Akshara Singh has decided to step into the realm of politics. The announcement comes as she prepares to join former poll strategist Prashant Kishor in his Jan Suraj campaign, a move set to unfold at 3 pm this Monday afternoon. The joining ceremony is scheduled to take place at the Jan Suraj office in Patliputra Colony, Patna.
The decision to enter politics follows Akshara’s recent meeting with Kishor. Sources claim that the actress has received assurances from the party, including a potential ticket for the 2024 elections, providing her with an opportunity to contest in the Lok Sabha polls.
Born in Mumbai on August 30, 1993 but with roots tracing back to Patna, Akshara has not only made a mark in the Bhojpuri film industry but has also garnered attention in Bollywood. Raised in an environment steeped in acting, she inherited her passion from her family, with her father, Bipin Inderjit Singh, and mother, Neelima Singh, both having illustrious careers in Bhojpuri cinema.
Kishor, the convenor of Jan Suraj campaign, has recently clarified that Jan Suraj is set to become a party soon. Talking to reporters at Madhubani last week, Kishor emphasized the need for a new political option in Bihar and underscored that the party’s formation is not contingent on any individual, caste, or family.
The announcement harks back to Kishor’s press conference in Patna on May 5, 2022, where he unequivocally expressed the inevitability of the Jan Suraj Party’s establishment
Emphasizing the party’s inclusive nature, Kishor asserted that Jan Suraj would not be formed by any individual, caste, or family but would instead be a collaborative effort, drawing together individuals from Bihar seeking a fresh alternative to the current political landscape. The objective is to create a platform for those disenchanted with existing parties and leaders, enabling them to form a united front.
