Patna, Aug 21 (IBNS): The state of Bihar is undergoing the bypolls to 10 Assembly seats on Thursday where it is a race between Prime Minister Narendra Modi's magic and the re-union of Janata Dal-United (JD-U) leader Nitish Kumar and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Prasad Yadav.

Nitish Kumar and Lalu Prasad Yadav, who parted ways twenty years ago, joined hands once again for the by-polls for 10 Assembly seats.
 
On Aug 11, they held their first rally together and were seen hugging each other at the event.
 
The parties entered into a seat-sharing agreement along with the Congress in which both JD-U and RJD will contest in four seats each leaving two to the Congress in the state.
 
The by-elections in 10 assembly seats are being seen as the semi-finals with all eyes on the state polls scheduled next year.
