RLSP must be given more than 3 seats: Kushwaha

PATNA: Stating that the Rashtriya Lok Samata Party (RLSP) has gained significantly in strength in Bihar, Union minister Upendra Kushwaha Friday demanded that his party be allotted more than three seats in the state by the NDA to contest the 2019 Lok Sabha election. Bihar has 40 Lok Sabha seats. Kushwaha’s Rashtriya Lok Samata Party had contested and won three seats in the 2014 general election. “My party had contested three Lok Sabha seats in 2014 but now this party’s strength and base have increased... Our party should be given more than three seats

after making a neutral assessment of its strength,” Kushwaha told reporters at his party office in Patna.
