New Delhi, April 25: YouTuber Manish Kashyap, previously embroiled in controversy and legal battles, took a significant step in his journey by joining the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Delhi on April 25, amidst the looming Lok Sabha Elections.
His decision to align with the ruling party was marked by a symbolic ceremony attended by BJP MP Manoj Tiwari, alongside his mother, whom he credited for influencing his choice.
Expressing his commitment to the BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership, Kashyap emphasized the transformative impact the party has had on his life.
He attributed his newfound sense of respect and dignity to the BJP, particularly highlighting their role in facilitating his release from incarceration.
Reflecting on his humble background and the challenges he faced, Kashyap’s emotional narrative underscored the BJP’s perceived role in providing opportunities for individuals from diverse socio-economic backgrounds.
In a veiled critique of opposition figures like Lalu Prasad Yadav and his family, Kashyap painted his decision as a rejection of the alleged mismanagement and corruption that plagued Bihar under their rule.
He pledged to contribute to the BJP’s efforts in strengthening Bihar, aligning himself with the party’s agenda of development and good governance.

Addressing his legal ordeal, Kashyap reiterated his innocence, citing the court’s decision to grant him bail and ultimately acquit him of the charges leveled against him.
He vowed to persist in his fight against those who defame traditional Indian values and oppose nationalism, positioning himself as a defender of Sanatana Dharma and patriotic ideals.
Manish Kashyap, hailing from West Champaran in Bihar, rose to prominence through his YouTube channel, where he vocalized concerns regarding various socio-economic issues plaguing the state.
His videos often spotlighted deficiencies in education and infrastructure, drawing attention to the lapses of the Bihar government and local administration.
However, his activism also attracted controversy, particularly when he was accused of fabricating accounts of harassment faced by Bihar laborers in Tamil Nadu.
This led to legal repercussions, including his incarceration in Madurai jail and subsequent detention in Patna’s Beur jail before his eventual release.
Kashyap’s entry into mainstream politics signifies a new chapter in his journey, marked by political engagement and alignment with the BJP’s vision.
Despite past controversies, his association with the ruling party signals a strategic move to leverage political support and advocate for his causes within the established political framework.
