Cong veterans, ministers hesitant to contest LS polls
The Morning Standard
|February 04, 2024
WITH party veterans and ministers hesitant to contest the general election, the Congress high command seems to find it difficult to select winnable candidates, resulting in a delay in the Grand Old Party releasing even its first list.
Ultimately, the party may have to experiment by fielding novices, which may have its own implications on its prospects, sources said.
Former minister Prakash Hukkeri has clarified that he will not contest the Lok Sabha polls, saying that he is “not a football to be kicked around by the high command”. He had obeyed the latter by contesting the LS polls in 2014, which he won, and also in 2019, but lost. Even if it insists this time, he will take no risk, a Congress leader observed.
