Bihar Elections: Conflict over seat-sharing increases in NDA

The JD-U wants the seats to be divided into two parts - between itself and the BJP, and while it would allocate seats to new entrant Hindustani Awam Morcha (HAM) from its quota, the BJP will give seats to the LJP from their quota. The BJP, on the other hand, wants a three-part division between itself, the LJP, and the JD-U, with the latter taking care of HAM from its share.
