Under the Family Benefit Card, families are promised five types of benefits: ₹12,000 monthly for job security, ₹2,000 for pensions to the elderly, widows, and disabled, ₹2,500 for labor support in farming, ₹1,000 for school education, and loans of up to ₹5 lakh for women at just 4% interest along with ₹2,500 assistance. The party says only one family member needs to register for eligibility.

The scheme has stirred political debate in Bihar. RJD is promoting its own “Mai Bahin Maan Yojana” with ₹2,500 for women, while BJP’s Deputy CM Samrat Chaudhary labeled Kishor’s plan as a fraud. JD(U) leader Vijay Chaudhary also dismissed it as empty promises.

Kishor, addressing public gatherings during his yatras, appealed for votes by stressing education and jobs over symbolic politics. He also hinted at contesting elections, possibly from Raghopur or his hometown Karahgar, signaling his intent for direct political entry.
