==Controversy==
As per ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20121023160018/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2009-04-04/patna/28056990_1_field-candidates-congress-mla-state-party-president The Times of India]'', a section of Congress leaders from Bihar are questioning the party's decision to field candidates who have poor track records in elections. They have questioned the candidature of a relatively unknown face like Amita Bhushan from Begusarai from where it could have fielded former PCC chief Ram Jatan Sinha. "In several constituencies, we still look like vote-katwas," said a former Congress MLA.<ref>{{cite news|first=Dipak|last=Mishra |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/Patna/Everything-not-hunky-dory-in-Cong/articleshow/4355737.cms |title=Everything not hunky-dory in Cong|newspaper=The Times of India|date=4 April 2009 |accessdate=11 November 2019}}</ref>
