BJP and its allies will meet on Monday to thrash out a deal over seat-sharing for the upcoming Bihar assembly elections. Party state in-charge Bhupender Yadav said BJP chief Amit Shah will head the meeting. LJP President Ram Vilas Paswan and RLSP Chief Upendra Kushwaha besides HAM (Secular) chief Jiten Ram Manjhi are likely to attend the meeting which will be the first such gathering of all NDA allies over seat-sharing. Few days back, LJP and RLSP had demanded that the seat-sharing arrangement be done within a week.
Earlier, Mr. Kushwaha had asked BJP to contest 102 seats, it had contested in 2010 polls with JD(U) and leave 142 others to its allies.
