RJD Leader Protests Ticket Denial in BiharSaralnama

What rolling on the ground in torn clothes? Where in Bihar? When on? Madan Prasad Sah, a 54-year-old RJD leader, protested after being denied a ticket from Madhuban in East Champaran. Sah claims he was promised a ticket by Lalu Prasad at 3 am but found it taken away hours later. He accused the party of demanding ₹2.7 crore for the ticket. Sah, an Ayurvedic doctor, lost the 2020 election by 5,500 votes. He believes his EBC Teli caste made him suitable for the seat. The RJD replaced him with Sandhya Rani, wife of their first choice, Santosh Mushwaha. Sah nephew competing claim and family infighting may have affected his chances. Despite the setback, Sah says he remains loyal to the RJD. (Updated 24 Oct 2025, 14:19 IST; source: link)
