Dear Reader,

The contest in Saran, Bihar, has intensified as Rohini Acharya, Lalu Yadav’s daughter, is rumoured to be contesting from the Lok Sabha constituency.

Winning this seat is crucial for RJD, as Saran has been a stronghold in the past. The incumbent MP, Rajiv Pratap Rudy of BJP, is expected to be a strong contender and his victory in 2024 would be crucial for reestablishing his credibility, as he has faced challenges within his party.


All these dynamics have been brought out by Abhishek Kumar in his recent column: https://swarajyamag.com/bihar/lalus-legacy-rudys-relevance-the-mini-battles-in-saran

Until next time.
