The saffron party has fielded Mithilesh Tiwari from the Buxar Lok Sabha seat. However, the BJP has now included Ashwini Choubey among its star campaigners.
Earlier, the BJP-led NDA demonstrated unity in Bihar with Chirag Paswan joining Nitish Kumar and Narendra Modi in a large rally in Nawada on Sunday. While addressing the public rally, Prime Minister Modi took a dig at the Congress-led INDIA alliance, suggesting that the opposition alliance fears “Modi’s Guarantees.” Modi emphasized that a senior leader of the INDI Alliance had recently advocated for a ban on Modi’s guarantees.
