Chhattisgarh Assembly elections, BJP fields Raman Singh
New Delhi: Apart from Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan, BJP has also announced candidates for Chhattisgarh assembly elections. BJP has declared candidates for 64 assembly seats in the state. There are a total of 90 assembly seats in the tribal dominated state. BJP has given a chance to former CM Dr. Raman Singh in its list from Rajnandgaon. Apart from this, State President Arun Sao has been fielded from Lormi. BJP has also given a chance to three MPs in the list of Chhattisgarh. These include Pathalgaon MP Mrs. Gomti Sai and Bharatpur Sonhat seat MP Renuka Singh. Arun Sao is also an MP.
BJP has also given a chance to the party’s national vice president and former CM Raman Singh in the election season. The party has not declared him or any other leader as the CM face of the state, but it is definitely taking Raman Singh forward. Raman Singh was the CM of the state for 15 years, but he had to be ousted from power in 2018 after a brutal election. After this, BJP mostly kept him away from state politics and gave him the post of National Vice President. Let us tell you that in Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan also, BJP has fielded veteran faces and MPs in the assembly elections.
The party has maintained the same strategy in Chhattisgarh. BJP has fielded Shyam Bihari Jaiswal from Manendragarh. Apart from this, Udheshwari Paikra has got a chance from Samari reserved seat. Let us tell you that BJP has already declared the candidate from Patan seat against CM Bhupesh Baghel. The name of Vijay Baghel was finalized in the very first list for this seat, who appears to be the nephew of Bhupesh Baghel.
