Notably, RSS has also its headquarters in Nagpur. In the last Lok Sabha Polls, Nitin Gadkari had secured victory by 2.84 lakh votes. 

 

On the other hand, Congress has fielded Nana Patole to take on Gadkari in the orange city. Notably, Nana Patole quit the BJP in 2017 and later joined the Congress party. Patole had criticised the BJP's leadership in 2017.

Calls himself the 'Hanuman of Prime Minister Modi, LJP leader Chirag Paswan is contesting the Lok Sabha Elections from Jamui, Bihar. Chirag Paswan is the son of late LJP chief Ram Vilas Paswan. Chirag is banking on the Modi factor and a favourable caste equation to get reelected from Maoist-hit Jamui. Chirag is pitted against grand alliance candidate Bhudeo Choudhary of RLSP. Choudhary had won the seat in 2009 on a JD(U) ticket. Jamui has over 11% Mahadalit population that may favour Chirag.
