Lok Sabha Election 2019: Tough roads for Misa Bharti as she set to face Ram Kripal Yadav at Patliputra, Bihar
"There are no problems between them. Tej Pratap ji always considered Tejashwi as his 'Arjun'. He might have suggested some names and discussions might be going on or party must have taken decision unanimously. It is a common process and every political party goes through it," RJD leader and former Bihar Chief Minister Lalu Yadav’s eldest daughter Misa Bharti told PTI in an email interview.
Ram Kripal Yadav was earlier a member of the Rashtriya Janata Dal. In 2014, he resigned from his party post and joined BJP. In 2014 general election, he won the Patliputra Lok Sabha seat by defeating Bharti.

Tejashwi Yadav, former deputy chief minister and currently leader of the opposition in the Bihar assembly, ducked questions related to infighting from the media.
While Tej Pratap picked a dark blue colour suit for the occasion, Aishwarya wore a sky-blue coloured saree with matching jewellery in the function.
No date has been fixed yet for the pronouncement of judgement in the case which is related to fraudulent withdrawal of Rs 3.13 crore from Dumka Treasury (RC 38A/96).
Misa Bharti said, her husband and the deceased CA "would be in a better position" to answer questions about the company and the farmhouse purchased by it.
The central probe agency had provisionally attached the immovable asset, located on a 12-bigha land in south Delhi's Bijwasan area, in September last year under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
The agency has allegedly detected some funds being transferred by Rahul Yadav to his mother-in-law Rabri Devi, the wife of Lalu Prasad.
The agency filed the chargesheet before Special Judge Naresh Kumar Malhotra at Delhi's Patiala House Court.
Sushil Modi alleged that the land is worth crores of rupees and is located at Maner in suburban Patna. The allegations were rubbished by the RJD.
The department has said these alleged benami assets bear a “deed” value of about Rs 9.32 crore but the taxman has estimated their current market value at Rs 170-180 crore

Official sources said the department is likely to file a criminal complaint against Bharti and Kumar.
The probe agency has also told the court that the investigation is still going on and the ED may file a supplementary charge sheet against fresh accused. The court today put up Agarwal's bail plea for argument on July 29.
The Enforcement Directorate, on July 8, had conducted searches at her Delhi farmhouse, that of her husband Shailesh Kumar and the firm in connection with this case.
The raids were conducted at three places -- Ghitorani, Sainik Farms and Bijwasan, belonging to Bharti and Kumar.
According to news agency ANI, Bharti was issued two summons to appear before Delhi investigation wing of I-T department but failed to appear. The I-T seized properties raided in May.
