#KanhaiyaKumar is a National Executive Council member of Communist Party of India (#CPI). The former Jawaharlal Nehru University student’s name had hit the headlines in 2016 when he was arrested by the Delhi police on charges of sedition. Following his release, Kanhaiya’s gritty speech at his alma-mater had turned him into a political star. In the 2019 General Election, Kanhaiya entered mainstream politics as CPI’s candidate against BJP leader Giriraj Singh in Begusarai, Bihar.

In this interview, after his electoral loss a year ago, Abhinandan Sekhri talks to Kanhaiya about his political career, his beliefs and the #Biharassemblyelection.
