New Delhi: A Janata Dal (United) delegation will visit the Election Commission tomorrow, seeking a quick decision on the claim of the Sharad Yadav faction over the party's symbol.
Its chief spokesperson K C Tyagi said the Yadav faction wanted to delay a decision so as to deny it the electoral symbol of arrow in the Gujarat Assembly polls. He had yesterday announced that the Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar-led party will contest on its four to five traditional seats in the state. Tyagi said a delegation, including the party's leader in the Rajya Sabha R C P Singh and Bihar government minister Rajiv Ranjan Singh besides him, will approach the Election Commission (EC) tomorrow to press for an early decision.
