The Chirag Paswan-led LJP(RV) should be allotted anywhere between 43 and 137 seats to contest as part of the NDA in the Bihar Assembly polls, party MP Arun Bharti said, clarifying that it was his personal opinion. He also dismissed claims that the seat-sharing arrangement within the alliance had been finalised. Notably, the LJP contested the 2020 Bihar elections independently.
