The prediction in an election is very risky and BJP knows it well source says. NDA was started with many parties but slowly many parties drift away during this long journey and now BJP needs new friends to consolidate its position source says. The Party of Late Ram Vilas Paswan, LJP was in the NDA since its inception but after the death of Ram Vilas ji, his brother,  Pashupatinath Kumar Paras parted away from the party and floated another Party, LJP ( RLJP), later was included in the cabinet leaving  Chirag Paswan, son of Late Ram Vilas Paswan and leader of LJP ( Ram Vilas) out to wait for some time. Now it is in the corridors that BJP is trying to bring both factions of LJP together to regain the lost popularity source says. BJP is continuously approaching  Upendra Kushwaha and his party VIP to join NDA source says. LJP was having 6 MPs from Bihar but after bifurcation 5 MPs joined the faction of  Pashupatinath Kumar Paswan LJP( RLJP) source says. VIP and united LJP will be a strong force in Bihar and a serious challenge to JD(U) and RJD source says.
