March 10, 2014 15:09

Hardening his stance, rebel RJD leader Ramkripal Yadav today said he would contest the Patliputra Lok Sabha seat, from where party chief Lalu Prasad has fielded his daughter Misa Bharti.

"I will contest from Patliputra," Yadav, who was a close confidant of Prasad and had resigned from all party posts on Saturday after denial of ticket from the seat, told reporters on arrival to Patna.

The Rajya Sabha MP, however, did not elaborate whether he would enter the fray as a nominee of any political party or as an Independent. He said he would announce his decision in a day or two.
