Lalu's daughter hires two IITians to manage her campaign

Thanks to them, Misa's Facebook page is getting support of youths in Patna.

She has also hired two doctor colleagues - one of them an NRI and the other based in Gujarat - to finalise strategy and to understand pulse of the people, particularly those in rural areas.

Jamil Akhtar, a New York-based doctor, is helping her in finalising her poll speeches and Azad Kumar is helping her understand the rural voters.

She is pitted against JD-U candidate and sitting MP Ranjan Prasad Yadav and BJP's Ram Kripal Yadav in the contest for the seat.

Ram Kripal Yadav was a close associate of her father, Lalu Prasad, and left the RJD after Lalu decided to field Misa from Patliputra constituency.
