BJP picks Sushil Modi for Bihar Rajya Sabha byelection

BJP has picked Sushil Modi for Rajya Sabha byelection from Bihar.
His election to the Upper House is all but certain as the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance has a majority in the state assembly.
Election to the seat is due for December 14 if the rival alliance led by the RJD decides to contest.
The seat had fallen vacant following the death of Lok Janshakti Party founder and Union minister Ram Vilas Paswan.
