New Delhi: BJP MP Ravi Kishan is once again in the headlines after he blamed the Congress party for having four kids while demanding a bill in the Parliament that would limit two kids for a family in the country.
Speaking at a conclave organized by India Today Group, the actor-turned politician Kishan said he would have limited his kids if the Congress party had invoked the bill in the parliament when they were in power at the Centre.
Kishan while speaking at the conclave said he feels sorry for the affairs of the country due to population explosion. When the presenter questioned him and said people would say that he made his own kids and now he is batting for limiting the number of kids per family.
“If the Congress had introduced this bill earlier, I would have stopped.” The MP said.
Kishan’s reply received sharp reactions by politicians, activists and journalists who criticized him over his remarks.

Ranchi: Champai Soren, a prominent figure in Jharkhand’s statehood movement, is contesting the 2024 assembly elections from Seraikela, a seat he has consistently held since 1991.
However, there is a surprising shift in his political journey this year. Having resigned from the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) earlier this year, Soren is now representing the BJP, a move that could significantly impact the electoral dynamics in the state.
Soren’s switiching is seen as a strategic benefit for the saffron party, which has been working to expand its appeal among Jharkhand’s tribal communities, a demographic traditionally aligned with the JMM. His departure from the JMM, led by Shibu Soren and his son Hemant Soren, was fueled by dissatisfaction with the state government’s policies, which he claimed had failed to address tribal concerns.
Also known as "Jharkhand’s Tiger" for his instrumental role in the statehood movement of the 1990s, Champai Soren has respect and influence among tribal voters. His decision to switch the party could be a turning point in the BJP’s efforts to gain a stronger hold in a state where tribal votes often decide the outcome.
