"When we form the government after the 2025 assembly polls in Bihar, we will end the liquor ban within one hour," he said, adding that "the existing prohibition law in the state is fake." The state has been incurring a "loss of nearly Rs 20,000 crore every year," while the "liquor mafia and officials continue to make money from illegal trade," Kishor said. Kishor also said Kumar was holding on to power as if he had applied adhesive to his chair and that the BJP, as his ally, bore the brunt of his "misrule", just like Congress was also "responsible for Lalu's jungle raj." Kishor said the BJP would face a "humiliating defeat in the coming polls as the saffron party is witnessing a leadership crisis in Bihar."
