A battery of top leaders including Margdarshak Mandal members L K Advani and Murli Manohar Joshi will campaign for NDA in Bihar. The BJP has submitted a list of 40 leaders, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, to the Election Commission as star campaigners.

A surprise in the list is party MP Shatrughnan Sinha, the filmstar-turned-Lok Sabha member, who has recently embarrassed the BJP leadership with his controversial remarks.

The star campaigners also include Union Ministers Rajnath Singh, Arun Jaitley, Sushma Swaraj, Nitin Gadkari Ananth Kumar, Ravi Shankar Prasad, Smriti Irani, Dharmendra Pradhan, Giriraj Singh and Rajiv Pratap Rudy.
