Patna: Senior Congress leader Ashok Gehlot, who arrived in Patna on Wednesday ahead of the Bihar assembly elections, clarified that there is no significant conflict within the Mahagathbandhan. He said minor differences over a few seats in the 243-member alliance are normal and not unusual in any state-level coalition.

Speaking to reporters, Gehlot said, "There is no dispute in Mahagathbandhan, focusing on 243 seats and in such a large alliance, having differences over 5 to10 seats is nothing unusual. In any state where there’s an alliance, it’s possible that conflicts may arise over a few seats. There are friendly fights, and that happens in all other states as well. Mahagathbandha remains firm against the BJP and JD(U)."
