He said RJD will contest only Palamu Lok Sabha seat in Jharkhand, putting to rest the speculation about rift with Congress over Chatra seat.
“We wished to contest from Chatra also, but Congress too wanted to do so. We don't want any friction among ourselves so I left it for Congress,” he said.
Talking about election campaigning in the state, the RJD chief said he will concentrate on Patliputra and Chhapra seats during the last leg of campaigning. His daughter and wife are contesting from these two seats respectively.
“I will campaign at both the places towards end. I will hold a public meeting on April 3 for Pataliputra seat,” he said.
The fight in Patliputra has become tough with his close aide Ramkripal Yadav crossing over to BJP to become its nominee from there in Patna district.
In Chhapra seat from where Prasad was disqualified after conviction in a fodder scam case, his wife Rabri Devi will take on arch rival Rajiv Pratap Rudy of BJP.
