BJP faced a setback in Bihar's Bankipur bypoll, losing a stronghold to Jan Suraaj founder Prashant Kishor, who secured his first electoral victory. While BJP retained Manjalpur in Gujarat and Congress held Datia in Madhya Pradesh, Kishor's win in Bankipur, a seat BJP had dominated for decades, signals a challenge to the party's core support base.
