From Koderma, BJP state president Rabindra Rai is fighting and he is also locked in a triangular fight, as is the Lohardagga seat among the BJP, Congress and the TMC.
The BJP has fielded sitting MP Sudarsan Bhagat, TMC has named its legislator Chamra Linda and the Congress has pitted former Indian Police Service officer and former central Minister Rameshwar Oraon.
In 2009, the BJP won two of the four seats, while one went gone to the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha and the fourth, of Chatra, was bagged by an Independent candidate.
