The Mahagathbandhan in Bihar is ready to begin discussions on sharing the 40 Lok Sabha seats in the state. Key leaders of all the parties are expected to meet today over a lunch of fish curry and rice. Their host Mukesh Nishad, who coined the slogan "Maach bhaat khayenge aur mahagathabandhan ko jeetayenge" (meaning "we will eat fish and rice and ensure the Mahagathbandhan wins") has ordered approximately 200 kg of fish for the 600 guests.
