Shatrughan Vs Shekhar??????

In what could set the stage for a star war in Patna, the Congress is seriously considering fielding actor Shekhar Suman
to take on Bollywood veteran Shatrughan Sinha in Patna Sahib.

Apart from both being from the tinsel world, there are other reasons for Congress to consider Suman for the high-profile battle against Shatrughan. They belong to the same Kayastha community and are likely to attract young voters.

Though Kayasthas are not considered a politically significant group, after delimitation, they have ended up as a major chunk of voters in the Patna Sahib seat.

However, the possibility of Suman being chosen for Patna Sahib has already created resentment within Congress with some other aspirants lodging their protest with the leadership.

Going it alone in Bihar after UPA constituents RJD and LJP refused to give it a respectable number of seats, Congress is now depending on well-known candidates who can attract votes on their own.
