The CPI (ML) leader said the UPA and NDA were ''divided forces'' following inner party squabble ''which would be advantageous'' to their party nominee.

The last date for filing nomination was fixed on March 10, scrutiny will take place on March 12 and the last date of withdrawal is March 13. The result would be declared on April one.

The by-election was necessitated after Mr Manoj Bhuiyan(RJD) had to lose the Lok Sabha seat following a money-query scam.
