It is believed to be the first republic in the world that holds a lot of importance for both Buddhists and Jains. Now Vaishali is in the middle of a hard-fought electoral battle between a strongman politician fielded by the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and the sitting MP from the Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) whose husband is an influential local leader said to be close to Chief Minister Nitish Kumar.
IT HAS been a back-breaking election for RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav – literally. For nearly a month now, the man on whom the INDIA campaign almost entirely rests in Bihar, has been on the road rallying support for the coalition, popping painkillers, wearing a lumbo sacral belt for back relief, and using a wheelchair when he can.
Almost three years after his death, strongman Mohammed Shahabuddin continues to wield influence in the Siwan Lok Sabha seat of Bihar, a region which gave India its first President Dr Rajendra Prasad and became synonymous with notoriety during the 1990s and early 2000s.

When Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised Chirag Paswan, both the Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) chief and his mother Reena rose from their seats to express gratitude to the PM who said Chirag had never been conceited despite being the son of Ram Vilas Paswan and had always shown a willingness to learn as an MP.
Senior BJP leader and former Deputy Chief Minister of Bihar Sushil Kumar Modi died Monday night at AIIMS, New Delhi. He was 72.
Addressing a meeting in Bihar’s Ujiarpur Lok Sabha constituency last week, Union Home Minister Amit Shah made an impassioned plea for Nityanand Rai, the junior minister in his department. “I have not done as much work in my constituency Gandhinagar (in Gujarat) as Nityanand Rai has done for Ujiarpur … Nityanand is my friend, ensure his victory with a huge margin,” Shah said.
