Senior BJP leader Yashwant Sinha today thanked the Election Commission for rescheduling elections for Hazaribagh LS seat to April 17.

Sinha had written to Chief Election Commissioner V S Sampath urging him to postpone it as the day clashed with Ram Navami.

All other political parties also appreciated the EC's prompt action.
