I am always ready for the development of Jamui. I have full confidence that the people of Jamui Lok Sabha will give me their blessings. Arun Bharti wanted to contest the Lok Sabha elections in 2019 itself, but Ram Vilas Paswan divided the three reserved seats among his son and two brothers, due to which there was no place for him.
