Lalu Yadav is ready to join Ramvilas Paswan at any cost. Even in 2009, when Ram Vilas Paswan lost the election of Lok Sabha from Hajipur to Ramasundar Das, Lalu Yadav sent him to the Rajya Sabha from LJP on the RJD seat. It is now believed that in order to send Ram Vilas Paswan again in 2019, Lalu Yadav has talked to the Congress leadership through messages.
