K'taka assembly win no guarantee Cong will perform well in 2024: PK

Patna, May 17 (PTI) Political strategist-turned-activist Prashant Kishor Wednesday cautioned the Congress against “mistaking” the victory in Karnataka assembly polls as a precursor to its performance in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.

His statement shared by 'Jan Suraaj', a political campaign launched by the IPAC founder in his home state of Bihar, pointed out that despite the Congress winning the 2013 Karnataka elections it had gone on to lose to the BJP in 2014 Parliamentary elections as also that the grand old party had lost the 2019 Lok Sabha elections after winning in three major states a year before.

"I congratulate the Congress upon its success in Karnataka. But I would also like to caution leaders and workers of the party against mistaking the assembly poll outcome for a hint of what lies in store in Lok Sabha polls," said Kishor, who stopped his statewide pada-yatra two days ago after a muscle tear in his leg. He has been convalescing at an undisclosed location since then.
