Congress Announces Candidates for Rajasthan Bypolls

  • India

The Congress party has unveiled its lineup for the upcoming bypolls across seven assembly constituencies in Rajasthan, with prominent names such as Amit Ola representing Jhunjhunu and Aryaan Khan contesting from Ramgarh.

In a stark deviation from its previous strategy, Congress has decided to go solo without any alliances with regional parties—a move not seen during the Lok Sabha elections. Meanwhile, BJP has declared candidates for six of the seven contested seats, sparking heightened electoral anticipation.

The bypolls, necessitated by either the demise of incumbents or their election to the Lok Sabha, are set to take place on November 13, with results expected on November 23. Interested parties must file nominations by October 25.
