In Bihar, BJP has alleged that RJD nominee from Saran Lok Sabha constituency Dr. Rohini Acharya has concealed several facts in her affidavit but the returning officer validated the nomination papers in haste. Dr. Acharya is daughter of RJD Chief Lalu Prasad and making her debut in electoral politics with Lok Sabha elections.

Talking to media persons in Patna, BJP leader S D Sanjay today said that the RJD nominee has concealed the facts related to the status of her citizenship, passport and residential status in the affidavit but these matters were overlooked by the returning officer.

He said BJP nominee from Saran Rajiv Pratap Rudy had raised the issue but it was ignored by the authorities.

Mr. Sanjay said Dr. Rohini Acharya has lived in another country for the past seven years so there should be clarity on her citizenship.

He said a writ petition has been filed in this matter in Patna High Court challenging the nomination of RJD contestant. The BJP leader said a speedy hearing has been requested to the High Court in this regard.
