NEW DELHI: In September, soon after the culmination of the 'Voter Adhikar Yatra' in Bihar, the leader of the Mahagathbandhan’s principal ally, Rashtriya Janata Dal’s (RJD) Tejashwi Yadav had taken a solo journey across some districts considered crucial for his party in the Assembly elections.

That solo five-day tour was intended to independently gauge the voters’ mood in 10 of the state’s 38 districts where the RJD has been gaining influence, or successfully holding its ground since 2010.

Other Mahagathbandhan constituents, meanwhile, took to convening their own meetings and attending to poll-related tasks like selection of candidates and chalking out a poll strategy.
