PATNA---------------------------Prashant Kishor's decline is no longer just political; it's also evident on a moral level. When someone can't keep his word, what difference is there between him and the leaders whose politics he has been questioning?

He should have stated bluntly in the press conference, "Yes, what I said was bragging. I shouldn't have talked about retirement. I misjudged the situation. I'm sorry. I will atone for my behavior by living among the people for a year without excuses." Just this much honesty could have salvaged his entire image.

But what happened? He did the exact opposite. Instead of directly answering his promises and claims, he offered illogical arguments, as if a stubborn leader was trying to evade questions. This contradiction in Prashant Kishor's words will hurt most those who until now considered him a logical, straightforward, outspoken, and composed politician.
