Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tej Pratap Yadav on Thursday announced that his sister and daughter of former Union minister Lalu Prasad, Misa Bharti, will contest from the Patliputra Lok Sabha seat. However, he said the final decision in this regard would be taken by party chief Prasad.
Misa had contested from the constituency in 2014 but lost. She is now slated to contest in the 2019 elections from the seat, although Bhai Virendra, an MLA from Maner constituency, voiced his desire to contest from the same seat recently.
Virendra had claimed that Bharti is currently a member of the Rajya Sabha
