Rohini Acharya Files Nomination For Saran Lok Sabha Seat

Earlier in the day, talking to reporters in Patna, Tejashwi Yadav expressed confidence that his sister will receive wholehearted support from voters of the constituency, which the RJD chief has represented several times until his disqualification in 2013 when he was convicted in a fodder scam case.

"Along with Saran, the 'Mahagathbandhan' is going to win all the 40 Lok Sabha seats in Bihar. BJP leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, know very well they are going to lose all the seats in the state. "I have said time and again that the Lok Sabha poll results in Bihar will be surprising. It will be completely in favour of the 'Mahagathbandhan'.

The PM has nothing to speak of the NDA's work in Bihar in the last 10 years," Yadav asserted. Saran will go to polls in the fifth phase on May 20. Lok Sabha elections to the 40 Lok Sabha seats in Bihar will be held in seven phases between April 19 and June 1.
