Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has embarked upon his door-to-door campaign called Har Ghar Dastak to seek feedback about the work done by the state government in the past — a strategy that is the brainchild of the genius behind Modi’s super-hit campaign of 2014, Prashant Kishor.

While Nitish Kumar is going around knocking on people’s doors, #JungleRajKiDastak is knocking on doors of the Twitteratti, trending especially among NaMo bhakts.

Taking a dig at the Bihar chief minister’s new campaign, BJP leader Giriraj Singh tweeted, “The person who wronged you is at your doorstep”.

Comparing Nitish Kumar’s campaigning strategy to that of PM Modi @ashimasingh99 tweeted:

@NaMoChaiParty also commented using #JungleRajKiDastak

@anilnindawat tweeted “the reality of best friends”

Which of the two dastaks (knocks) will get answered? While one has to wait for that, the Great Bihar Alliance is definitely on for now, and the BJP is lashing out at it in every way they can.
