Rashtriya Lok Dal (RLD) President Chaudhary Ajit Singh will contest the Lok Sabha elections from Muzaffarnagar in Uttar Pradesh. His son and party Vice-President Jayant Chaudhary will be in the fray from the Baghpat seat.

According to a party statement here on Tuesday, Kunwar Narendra Singh will be party's candidate for the Mathura constituency.

The Samajwadi Party (SP), the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) and the RLD are in an poll alliance under which the SP will field candidates in 37 seats, the BSP 38 and the RLD three in the state.
