Telangana Elections: BJP Announces Fourth List Of The Candidates
Hyderabad, November 7: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Tuesday announced its fourth list of candidates for the November 30 Telangana Assembly Elections.
The Central Election Committee of BJP announced the list of candidates for 12 constituencies.
The saffron party has so far announced candidates for 100 out of 119 Assembly seats.
The BJP is reported to have agreed to leave a dozen seats for its ally Jana Sena Party (JSP) led by actor-turned-politician Pawan Kalyan.
A seat-sharing agreement between the two parties is likely to be announced soon.
The BJP has fielded Bantu Ramesh Kumar from Kodangal, where TPCC president A. Revanth Reddy is contesting. The state’s ruling BRS has fielded sitting MLA P. Narender Reddy.
Meanwhile, Tula Uma, who had quit BRS to join the BJP in 2021, has been fielded from Vemulawada, where there were several aspirants for the seat.
In Munugode, where the BJP had lost the by-polls held in November last year, Chalamalla Krishna Reddy will be the party candidate.
The saffron party recently received a big jolt in this constituency with the resignation of Komatireddy Rajagopal Reddy, who returned to the Congress party.
Rajagopal Reddy had quit Congress and resigned from the Assembly to join BJP in August last year.
In the by-poll, he lost to K. Prabhakar Reddy of BRS by 10,309 votes.
Rajagopal Reddy will now be contesting as the Congress candidate while BRS has retained Prabhakar Reddy.
The BJP had announced the first list of 52 candidates on October 22 while the second list had just one name. The third list of 35 candidates was announced on November 2.
