Assam CM & BJP's Jharkhand co-incharge Himanta Biswa Sarma said that RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav has "no brand value" in the I.N.D.I.A bloc. "Tejashwi went to Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren's house thrice but failed to get adequate seats," he added. Referring to BJP leaders joining JMM, Sarma said JMM "doesn't have candidates and if required, BJP can send 8-10 more".
