MCD polls: JD(U) to release second list of candidates soon

The Janta Dal (United) will release the second list of candidates for MCD elections in a day or two, in which it hopes to woo Purvanchali voters riding on Nitish Kumar government's 'good governance' model."We have targeted to field 100-150 candidates and our main competitor

would be BJP, not Congress or AAP.

"The Bihar model of prohibition, good governance will be a key factor in our campaigning. Women and people hailing from Bihar and Uttar Pradesh would be the main constituency

of voters whom we will be reaching out to," said

JD(U) national spokesperson K C Tyagi.The Nitish Kumar-led party had recently released the first 27 list of candidates for the municipal polls due on April 22, majority of which have been allotted to women and youth.

The JD(U) also seeks to reach out to the Sikh community based on the goodwill earned from the community for organising 'Prakash Parv' in January.
