Atal Behari Vajpayee (BJP) vs Ram Jethmalani (Ind) Constituency: Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh Ram Jethmalani is going all out to ensure that Lucknow won`t be a cakewalk for his former friend and boss, Prime Minister Vajpayee. After the initial flip-flop over his candidacy, Jethmalani is going hammer and tongs against Vajpayee and has launched a relentless attack on a man whom he once served in the cabinet as his law minister.
