BHOPAL LS SEAT TO WITNESS NEW FACES IN POLL BATTLE
The Sunday Guardian
|February 25, 2024
Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur is unlikely to be repeated. Digvijaya Singh will not contest from the seat.
The high profile Bhopal Lok Sabha seat., which had sent Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur to Parliament in 2019, will witness a battle between two new candidates this time.
While the BJP is unlikely to repeat Pragya, former Chief Minister Digvijaya Singh, who had contested as the Congress candidate the last time, has announced that he won't contest from Bhopal.
In place of Thakur, the BJP is likely to field a new face, as has been its trend in the last few elections.
The Congress, meanwhile, bereft of too many strong contenders who can at least present a semblance of a fight on this seat, is likely to go with Sanjeev Saxena, general secretary, Madhya Pradesh Congress, who runs a network of pharmacy and engineering colleges in the state and has been contesting Assembly elections since the latter part of 2000.
