Patna: The NDA's victory in all four assembly seats in the Bihar byelections on Saturday dealt a major blow to Prashant Kishor (PK), who launched his political party, Jan Suraaj, on October 2. Despite fielding candidates in all four seats, Jan Suraaj finished third in three constituencies and fourth in Ramgarh. For PK, who earlier said the 2025 Bihar assembly poll results would be settled in the byelection itself, the results may be a learning lesson, metaphorically, as a political outfit as the poll panel had allotted him ‘schoolbag' as the election symbol.

We are committed to reform. I own the outcome and will focus on strengthening the party organization in the next six months. We will contest all 243 seats in 2025. In democracy, six months is a long time. I am not backing out." Jan Suraaj faced criticism for strategic missteps, such as announcing the candidature of Lt Gen (retd) S K Singh in Tarari without verifying his voter eligibility and last-minute candidate changes in Belaganj. In Tarari, Jan Suraaj's Kiran Singh managed only 5,622 votes while BJP's Vishal Prashant defeated CPI(ML)'s Raju Yadav by over 10,500 votes.

JD(U) spokesperson Rajeev Ranjan Prasad added, "PK is a great poll strategist for leaders like PM Modi and CM Nitish Kumar, but strategizing for oneself is a different game. The results reaffirm people's trust in Nitish's leadership and pave the way for our 2025 goal of 225+ seats." Senior BJP leader Devesh Kumar echoed the sentiment. "The results reflect people's support for the developmental road map of PM Narendra Modi and CM Nitish. The claim that Jan Suraaj would cut into NDA votes has been proven wrong," he said. The results were also a setback for RJD as Jan Suraaj's Amjad in Belaganj indirectly contributed to JD(U)'s Manorama Devi defeating RJD's Vishwanath Singh Yadav by over 21,000 votes. However, RJD spokesperson Chitranjan Gagan dismissed PK's impact. "His candidates received votes based on their personalities, not policies," he said. While Jan Suraaj's Jitendra Paswan garnered 37,103 votes in Imamganj, the highest among PK's candidates, he failed to overcome the dynasty politics of HAM(S) leader Jitan Ram Manjhi, whose daughter-in-law Deepa Kumari secured the seat.Tinubu not telling Nigerians the truth about country’s situation – LamidoAfter-hours movers: Zscaler, Honeywell, Microchip Technology and moreu park ii 。

Prominent leaders of ‘Hindu Sanatani Sangathan’ and ‘All India Imams Organisation’ attended a meet here where they discussed the continuing attacks on minorities and their places of worship in Bangladesh. Voicing concern over the situation, the religious leaders said there was an immediate need for restoration of peace and harmony and the interim government must step in to protect lives and properties in Bangladesh. Faizen Munieer of All India Imams Organisation said, “Every community must enjoy the right to practice its religion without any intimidation. But we are worried and saddened over the situation in Bangladesh from where reports of attacks against minorities continue to pour in. We want an end to these hostilities and stand for the rights of every minority community member everywhere.” Munieer said after another meeting with leaders of different faiths in the country, they will take up with the Bangladesh government the issue of providing safety and security for minority community members there and propose to send a peace delegation if given consent by the governments of both India and Bangladesh. A prominent leader of the Hindu Sanatani Sangathan said religion teaches tolerance, non-violence and peaceful co-existence. “We are alarmed over the continuing attacks on Hindus in Bangladesh. Even women are not being spared by fundamentalists. We wish the interim government puts an end to such attacks before things turn worse,” the Hindu leader said. When contacted, the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON), Kolkata vice-president Radharamn Das told PTI that attacks are regularly taking place in Bangladesh. “We are holding prayers for peace and amity and end to hostilities against minorities in Bangladesh. The situation has become such that even women are not being spared from brutal attacks,” he said.

We all love the occasional DIY project, but did you know some DIY projects can cause more harm than good? While some DIY mistakes are harmless, others can cause injury or costly repairs. In fact, some pros have told us they often see people spending more money to fix a mistake than it would have cost to hire a professional in the first place. Here’s a look at some home projects you should never do yourself: 1. Plumbing While you can DIY a clogged drain or faucet replacement, you should leave more complicated plumbing work to the pros. Home plumbing systems run on a complicated ecosystem of flow, gravity, venting and air pressure to send everything where it’s supposed to go. It takes an expert eye to add onto or try to repair that system. And if water damage gets out of control — as it can very easily — you can rack up a lot of repair bills quickly. People are also reading... Consider leaving complicated plumbing work to the pros. Adobe Stock 2. Electrical Never attempt to do electrical work yourself. You can either injure yourself or you could cause a fire. Even for the smallest electrical jobs, I would encourage you to bring in a professional. Most electrical jobs require specific training and certification and many larger ones require that permits be pulled as well. Even if you do the job correctly, the lack of a permit could come up during an inspection when it’s time to sell the house. 3. Gas appliances Natural gas is an incredibly useful tool; it also can pose one of the most hazardous home problems. Stay away from any projects that involve gas lines, such as repairs on your gas appliances, and leave that work to qualified professionals. 4. Structural work If your project involves structural work, like moving a load-bearing wall, you always want to bring in a contractor. That is not something you want to do yourself because you could damage your home and put your family at risk. Quite often, even an experienced contractor will turn to a structural engineer to be sure they know they’re doing it correctly. Roofing experts have the training to perform a dangerous job safely.

You’re putting yourself at risk if you try to do this yourself. Also, roofing work is important and delicate. Even a small leak can cause a lot of water damage. 6. Heating, ventilation and air conditioning You also should leave HVAC work to the pros. These are some of the most intricate systems in your home, and even minor errors can lead to catastrophic results. For example, air conditioning refrigerant is dangerous to handle, and the work involved with ductwork is very intricate. All this is best left to a professional. Are scented candles bad for you?
