The Congress party has given a list of 15 Lok Sabha seats in Bihar to the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) for fielding its candidates in the upcoming general elections, sources said. A meeting between the RJD and Congress is scheduled to take place within the next 2 to 3 days, during which each seat allocation will be thoroughly discussed, they added.

Here’s the list of seats asked by Congress: 

1. Sasaram
