The joint opposition candidate Yashwant Sinha has a deep and long relationship with the BJP and his son Jayant Sinha, currently also a Lok Sabha MP from Hazaribagh in Jharkhand. Father Yashwant Sinha has been a minister in Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s NDA government, while son Jayant Sinha has been a minister in Modi’s NDA government. After this, since the announcement of Yashwant’s candidate by the opposition parties, there were speculations that what would his son Jayant Sinha do now?

People and media have been questioning me since this announcement. I will request all of you. That you don’t see me as a son at this time, don’t make this a family affair.
“I am a BJP worker, a BJP MP from Hazaribagh. I understand my constitutional obligations and will fulfill it fully,” Jayant said, saying that he would fulfill his obligations towards the party instead of his father.
