BJP’s Expectations Upset, Prashant Kishor Takes Lead

An unexpected turn during the Bankipur bypoll results attracted widespread attention. Around 8 AM, BJP workers reportedly prepared nearly 200 kg of laddoos expecting an election victory celebration. However, the situation changed dramatically by afternoon.

By around 1 PM, Jan Suraaj Party founder Prashant Kishor moved ahead of the BJP candidate by over 15,000 votes. The prepared laddoos became a major talking point online, with photos and reactions turning into viral memes.
