Patna, Oct 6 (TIWN) In a bid to counter Lalu Prasad, the NDA has put forward Jitan Ram Manjhi, the president of the Hindustani Awam Morcha (HAM) and Mukesh Sahani, president of the Vikassheel Insan Party (VIP), to attack Lalu Prasad and his family during the upcoming by-elections in the state.

The voting for the two seats of Kusheshwar Sthan and Tarapur is to be held on October 30 and the results will be out on November 2.  For the NDA, the JDU has fielded two candidates who will face the heat from the RJD. Bihar assembly election 2020 was contested without Lalu Prasad as he was serving a jail term in the fodder scam. Now in the by-election, he is out on bail and the RJD has announced his entry into the election campaign with a bang for these two seats.
