"He (Shekhar Suman) will be contesting from Patna Sahib. His joining the Congress will strengthen the party in the state, " Bihar Congress Committee chief Anil Sharma said while announcing Suman's candidature at the party office here.
Talking to the media here, Suman said: "My personal relations (with Shatrughan Sinha) will not be affected. It is not a personal fight. It is a fight between ideologies. I believe in the ideology of the Congress."
In reply to a query about film stars joining politics and failing to turn up in their constituencies later, Suman said: "I won't run away as my home is there only."
