The two main constituents of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in Bihar, the Janata Dal (United) and the Bharatiya Janata Party, are likely to fight slightly over 100 seats each in the assembly elections scheduled later this year, with the former pushing to get a symbolic advantage of even a seat or two to underscore that chief minister Nitish Kumar will remain in charge, senior
NDA leaders aware of developments said on Wednesday.
Bihar has 243 seats, of which the NDA holds 131 and the Opposition holds 111.
The Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) is likely to get around 20 seats, the leaders cited above said.
