Shubhrastha Shikha: Profile, Family and Boyfriend

Shubhrastha Shikha has emerged as a master election strategist along with Prashant Kishore and Rajat Sethi. She has worked with Prashant Kishore team before 2014 General Election, when PK was working with Narendra Modi. She was also among the core member of the team which worked for Nitish Kumar. However, she couldn't continue to work with PK for long because of his proximity with Congress leaders. She was asked by Rajat Sethi to join a small team led by Ram Madhav. The first success for this team was in Assam. Since then, this team has guided BJP to sweep almost entire North East.

In July 2013, she along with Prashant Kishore founded Citizens For Accountable Governance – CAG. It should be noted that this institution strategized Narendra Modi Prime Ministerial campaign. Shubhrastha Shikha considers it just a small pawn in the whole election strategy and work. She said that it is wrong on the part of media to give so much credence to election strategists. After Assam Election, she humbly put that the result was because of RSS pracharaks and general BJP karyakartas. She or Rajat Sethi or other team members just coordinated the effort. This is different from the thinking of Prashant Kishore who wanted to take entire credit of Narendra Modi impressive performance in the Lok Sabha Election and that was the reason why he was asked to go out of the fold of the BJP.

Shubhrastha Shikha is also working with many media organizations as a freelance journalist, like The Guardian of London and DailyO of India Today group. Her thinking about different facets of election strategy is magnificent and a treat for readers.
