Expansion


Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra has now left for Rajasthan from Madhya Pradesh. After getting free time from the journey, the senior leaders of the state have started finalizing the names of the candidates for the Lok Sabha elections. At present, an important meeting of the Central Election Committee is going to be held by the Congress on Thursday. It is being speculated that after this meeting the much awaited list of Congress will be released. In this meeting, a decision may be taken to make senior leaders of Madhya Pradesh contest the Lok Sabha elections on the lines of Chhattisgarh. If the election committee of Congress approves it, then along with Digvijay Singh, big faces like Kamal Nath, Nakul Nath, Kantilal Bhuria, Arun Yadav, Bala Bachchan, Sajjan Singh Verma, Phool Singh Baraiya, Tarun Bhanot will be seen contesting the Lok Sabha elections.

Three leaders from Madhya Pradesh will attend the Central Election Committee meeting of Congress to be held on Thursday. In this, screening committee chairperson Rajni Patil along with state in-charge Bhanwar Jitendra Singh, Madhya Pradesh Congress state president Jitu Patwari, leader of opposition Umang Singhar and CEC member Omkar Singh Markam will be included. In this meeting, the names of candidates from the states of Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Kerala, Karnataka, Telangana, Lakshadweep, Delhi, Rajasthan and North East will be discussed. Congress sources say that after the CEC meeting, candidates can be announced for 10 to 15 seats in Madhya Pradesh. In the first list, names can be declared for Chhindwara, Betul, Rajgarh, Balaghat, Jhabua, Guna, Dhar, Dewas, Sidhi Lok Sabha seats. Congress’ list may come even before the code of conduct is implemented. It is expected that the first list of Congress will come on 8 or 9 March.

Congress will bet on big leaders on these seats in MP

Congress sources say that in Chhattisgarh, an agreement has been reached to field many former ministers of Chhattisgarh government including former CM Bhupesh Baghel, former Deputy CM TS Singh Deo in the Lok Sabha elections. The names of these leaders will be announced in the CEC meeting. Like Chhattisgarh, the Congress leadership can give instructions to senior leaders of Madhya Pradesh to contest the Lok Sabha elections. Congress Screening Committee Chairperson Rajni Patil has said that it is our desire that all senior leaders contest the Lok Sabha elections.

If a consensus is reached in the Congress about senior MP leaders contesting the Lok Sabha elections, then former CM Digvijay Singh can be the Lok Sabha candidate from Rajgarh parliamentary seat. Digvijay Singh has dominance on this seat. However, BJP has been winning this seat for the last two elections. Raghaugarh seat also falls in this parliamentary constituency. Digvijay Singh’s son Jaivardhan Singh is the MLA from here.

Nakul Nath’s name is almost certain from Chhindwara, the stronghold of former Chief Minister Kamal Nath. Nakulnath has also won the last election. Whereas Kamal Nath has said that only Nakul Nath will contest elections in Chhindwara. There is a strong discussion within the party about making Kamal Nath a candidate. Kamal Nath can make candidates from Balaghat, the seat adjacent to Chhindwara. However, the final decision on this will be taken only after the consent of Kamal Nath and the approval of the central leadership.

Former minister Sajjan Singh Verma can be made the candidate from Dewas. Verma has already been an MP from this seat. Whereas MLA Mahesh Parmar and former MLA Ramlal Malviya can be fielded from Ujjain seat. Former leader of opposition Ajay Singh Rahul can be made the candidate in Satna. Ajay Singh had lost the last Lok Sabha election directly. Ticket can be given to Kamleshwar Patel in Sidhi and former Union Minister Arun Yadav in Khandwa. Yadav has previously been an MP from this seat. Whereas Kantilal Bhuria can again be made the candidate from Ratlam. Bhuria had lost the last Lok Sabha elections from this seat. Former minister Tarun Bhanot can contest from Jabalpur seat, MLA Jhuma Solanki and Bala Bachchan can contest from Khargone seat. Former leader of opposition Dr. Govind Singh has expressed his desire to fight from Morena. But after BJP declared Thakur as its candidate, Congress is now considering giving ticket to some other candidate from the same seat.
