"Singh was keen to field his wife on an LJP ticket but was denied the same. After that, he has been playing pressure politics," a leader said.
The BJP-led NDA formally announced the seat-sharing arrangement on Saturday. The BJP will contest 160 of the 243 assembly seats, LJP 40 seats, Rashtriya Lok Samata Party 23 seats and Jitan Ram Manjhi's Hindustani Awam Morcha 20 seats.
