The Hindu
Congress announces candidates for Gujarat bypolls; BJP and AAP also field contenders for the upcoming elections.
The opposition Congress has announced Ramesh Chavda and Nitin Ranpariya as its candidates from Kadi and Visavadar assembly constituencies, respectively, for the upcoming bypolls to the two seats in Gujarat.
Mr. Chavda is a former Congress MLA from Kadi assembly seat in Mehsana district.
Mr. Ranpariya, who had served as a member of the Junagadh district panchayat, is fighting the assembly election for the first time.
The ruling BJP has fielded Rajendra Chavda from Kadi and Kiritbhai Patel from Visavadar for the June 19 bypolls.
It will be a three-pronged fight in these seats as Arvind Kejriwal's Aam Aadmi Party has already fielded Jagdish Chavda from Kadi and Gopal Italia from Visavadar.
The Scheduled Caste-reserved Kadi seat fell vacant following the demise of BJP MLA Karsanbhai Solanki on February 4.
The Visavadar seat fell vacant after AAP MLA Bhupendra Bhayani resigned in December 2023. He later joined the ruling BJP.
