The development is being seen as further sidelining of the elder siblings in the party
Lalu Prasad's eldest daughter Misa Bharti and elder son Tej Pratap Yadav were left out of the RJD star campaigners' list released on October 7 for the upcoming by-elections to a couple of assembly seats in Bihar.
The development is being seen as further sidelining of the elder siblings in the party founded and headed by the father who has made little secret of his preference for younger son Tejashwi Prasad Yadav.
The list, signed by the party's principal national secretary general Abdul Bari Siddiqui, comprises 20 names, including Lalu Prasad himself who is now out of jail and, if his health permits, can canvass for his party's candidates for Tarapur and Kusheshwar Asthan.
