Defeat of Kanhaiya Kumar sends out a message as Javed-Shabana-Swara fail to bail him out

Patna, May 24 (IBNS): The battle of  Begusarai, which was seen by many as the fight between the David and the Goliath, remained in Bharatiya Janata Party's favour as its firebrand leader Giriraj Singh defeated his opponent Kanhaiya Kumar to make his way to the Parliament. But this was no ordinary constituency with the liberal brigade of India throwing their weight behind the JNU student leader slapped with sedition charges and seen as one of the challengers of Modi rule.
