Responding to Stalin’s tweet, I-PAC said that its Tamil Nadu team is excited to work with the DMK and will help the party in winning the 2021 assembly elections. I-PAC tweeted, “Thanks Thiru MK Stalin for the opportunity. The I-PAC Tamil Nadu team is excited to work with DMK to help secure an emphatic victory in 2021 elections and contribute in putting the state back on the path of progress and prosperity under your able leadership.” 'Prashant Kishor is Coronavirus, Happy He is Leaving Us,' Says JDU Leader Ajay Alok Amid Tensions Between Party VP and Nitish Kumar.

Currently, Kishor’s organisation is working with the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) for the Delhi assembly elections. The I-PAC had also managed the poll campaign of Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the 2014 Lok Sabha Elections. Kishor’s organisation had also worked for Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh in 2015 and 2017 respectively. However, he also worked for the congress in 2017 Uttar Pradesh assembly elections, but the party suffered a defeat.

Earlier this week, Kishor, along with Pavan Varma were expelled for the JDU for slamming the Bihar CM for supporting the citizenship Amendment Act (CAA). Kishor was the Vice President of the JD(U).
