The NDA was facing a very difficult task in managing the parties under its fold because the aspirations of leaders were very high and no leader wanted to deviate even for one seat from their original demand, the source says. The BJP, the senior partner of the NDA, had great difficulty in convincing, Nitish Kumar, Chirag Paswan and lastly Upendra Kushwaha source says. Nityanan Rai, senior BJP leader of Bihar and minister in the central government worked hard to convince Kushwaha and only after two meetings with HM, where he was probably assured not to worry about his second Rajya Sabha term and other supports with a request to go into the field with full power to ensure a repeat of the government in the state source says.
