On Nomination From Hajipur Seat, Chirag Paswan's Big Claim

 Chirag Paswan, back in the NDA and hugged publicly by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, today pushed the ball in the court of his uncle Pashupati Paras when asked about unification of Lok Janshakti Party factions. In an exclusive interview with NDTV, he also dropped hints that the question of Hajipur seat -- the latest bone of contention with his uncle -- has already been settled in his favour by the NDA.  Asked about the battle over the seat and the claims of his uncle, Mr Paswan said, "I'm sure he has a claim. He is the current MP. But I too, have my reasons. Hajipur was my father's project and it is my responsibility to finish his unfinished work. But these decisions will be made by the alliance".
