The main opposition RJD on Thursday received yet another jolt ahead of the polls when its three more MLAs including old-timer Chandrika Rai, whose daughter is locked in a nasty marital dispute with Lalu Prasads son, joined the ruling JD(U).
Rai hinted that his daughter might contest the coming assembly polls. He, however, did not specify the name of the RJD leader against whom his daughter Aishwarya would contest polls, but asserted that there is no “safe seats” for both brothers- Tejashwi Yadav and Tej Pratap Yadav- in the state. Rais daughter Aishwarya had tied the knot with Prasads elder son Tej Pratap Yadav in May, 2018 though the latter filed a divorce petition barely six months later citing incompatibility.
The matter is pending with a Patna court.
