As the Bihar Assembly elections draw closer, the political fight in the state is intensifying with sharp exchanges between leaders. Jan Suraaj founder Prashant Kishor on Monday advised All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi to focus on his Hyderabad constituency instead of venturing into Bihar's Seemanchal region.

He said that "son of Seemanchal should be leaders of Seemanchal" and added that Muslims here will not commit the mistake of 2020.
