Rebel BJP leader Shatrughan Sinha, who has been denied ticket to contest from the Patna Sahib Lok Sabha seat, slammed party leadership, particularly PM Modi, for fielding Amit Shah from Gandhinagar constituency, a seat from where Advani won six times in the past.

While Union minister Giriraj Singh, whose Nawada seat has gone to the LJP, has been shifted to Begusarai, his colleagues in the council of ministers Ravi Shankar Prasad will be contesting from Patna Sahib seat.

Bihar Congress campaign committee chairman Akhilesh Prasad Singh, however, did not reveal how many seats the respective constituents of the grouping are going to get.
