India News: Amid strong reservations within the party over Narendra Modi's much-speculated projection as BJP's prime ministerial candidate, the two-day national meet of JD(U) beginning in New Delhi from Saturday is set to bring the spotlight back on NDA's next candidate for the top post.

The national executive and national council meeting of JD(U) will also see a formal announcment of Sharad Yadav as the party's president for a third consecutive time.

The constitution of JD(U) was amended on March 5 to provide a third term to Yadav who had first become its chief in 2006 replacing George Fernandes.
