He had in late August asserted that he will not be part of any coalition which included Pashupati Kumar Paras, his rebellious uncle who is a cabinet minister at the Centre.
Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) chief Chirag Paswan will campaign for the National Democratic Alliance for the upcoming by-polls in the state, BJP's Bihar President today clarified amid growing murmurs that the young leader was angry with the BJP.
Sanjay Jaiswal, addressing the media today, claimed Chirag Paswan "has always been" with the BJP and will even campaign for the NDA alliance in the two seats on October 31 and November 1.
"All constituent parties of the alliance are putting their energies into this," he said, pointing out that alliance partners are together, as was clear from the polls for the post of President and Vice President.
Mr Jaiswal also made serious allegations against the grand alliance government in the state, accusing the incumbent Mokama MLA -- Rashtriya Janata Dal's Anant Kumar Singh -- of threatening traders and shopkeepers in the constituency.
