Ahead of the forthcoming Lok Sabha election, Lok Janshakti Party-Ram Vilas (LJP-RV) president Chirag Paswan on Tuesday expressed the hope that his faction will secure a “respectable” number of seats from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the National Democratic Alliance (NDA).
Mr. Paswan emphasised that his talks with the BJP were “going positively”, and by the end of month, seat sharing details would be announced. He did not, however, state the number of seats he was expecting to secure for his faction of the LJP.
In the 2019 parliamentary election, the undivided LJP had contested in six constituencies, and was given one Rajya Sabha seat.
