Tej Pratap Yadav in fray from Mahua NEW DELHI: In a dramatic turn for the Mahua battlefield, Tej Pratap Yadav finds himself pushed to the margins, trailing far behind with just 4399 votes—even as LJP (Ram Vilas) candidate Sanjay Kumar Singh dominates the race with a strong lead of 19106 votes. RJD’s Mukesh Kumar Raushan follows at 13828 votes, while AIMIM’s Amit Kumar stands at 6875. The numbers mark a stark setback for Tej Pratap, whose new party, Janshakti Janta Dal, is struggling to gain ground in a contest overwhelmingly shaped by stronger political players. Tej Pratap, expelled earlier this year from the RJD and now contesting on his own banner, is attempting to reclaim Mahua. Raushan, the incumbent, is fighting to retain the seat amid threats of a split in the Yadav vote.CandidatesParty VotesStatusTej Pratap YadavJJP4399TrailingMukesh Kumar RaushanRJD13828TrailingSanjay SinghLJP(RV)19106LeadingMargin of difference In the 2020 assembly election, Mukesh Kumar Raushan of the RJD won with 62,747 votes (36.48 per cent), defeating JDU’s Ashma Parveen, who polled 48,977 votes (28.47 per cent).
