Gujarat Election 2022: BJP Releases Fifth List Of 3 Candidates

Gujarat Polls 2022: The list has name of candidates the BJP is fielding from Kheralu, Mansa and Garbada assembly constituencies.

The Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) on Wednesday released its fifth list of candidates for the upcoming Gujarat Assembly Polls. In the fifth list, three names feature. The party has fielded Sardasinh Chaudhary from the Kheralu seat while Jayantibhai Patel and Mahendrabhai Bhabhor will contest the polls from the Mansa and Garbada assembly constituencies respectively.

Elections in Gujarat will take place in two phases on December 1 and December 5, and the counting of votes will take place on December 8.

Meanwhile, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday said the BJP ended "appeasement politics" and established the rule of law in Gujarat during its 27-year rule and slammed Congress on various issues.

Shah alleged the Congress used to mock BJP and its cadres over the construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya and asked Rahul Gandhi to visit the temple, which he said will be ready for inauguration in January 2024.

Shah was speaking at an election rally in support of Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel, the BJP's candidate from the Ghatlodia seat in Ahmedabad city.

After the rally, Shah and Patel led a roadshow up to the Sola area where Patel submitted his nomination papers for the next month's elections to authorities. Gujarat is scheduled to vote in two phases on December 1 and 5. The counting of votes will be taken up on December 8.

The BJP is eyeing a seventh straight term in Gujarat, the home state of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Shah, where a triangular contest among BJP, Congress and AAP is shaping up.
