In the constituency of Hadoti, the supporters of Vasundhara Raje and Om Birla were given positions in the third list released by the BJP for the Rajasthan Legislative Assembly. The BJP has not yet announced candidates for the Kota North parliamentary constituency and the Pipalda assembly constituency.
The party named Kalpana Devi from the Ladpura assembly seat, Madan Dilawar from the Ramganj Mandi assembly seat, and Chandrakanta Meghwal from the Keshorai Patan assembly seat. These three candidates are currently sitting MLAs from their respective constituencies. Former Minister Prabhu Lal Saini was nominated as a candidate for the Hindoli assembly constituency, and he is running against Ashok Chandna. All these candidates are associated with Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla. Similarly, in the past, Sandeep Sharma from the Kota South constituency and Hiralal Nagar from the Sangod assembly constituency were given tickets. These two candidates are also associated with Om Birla.
In the Baran-Atru assembly constituency, Sarika Chaudhary, Lalit Meena from Kishangarh, and Kanwar Lal Meena from Anta were announced as candidates. Pratap Singh Sangit has already been given a ticket from Chhapra. Candidates for all seats in Jhalawar district have been announced, and most of them are said to be the preference of former Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje, and it is believed that Raje has been successful in getting her preferred candidates nominated. Raje is herself contesting elections from the Jhalrapatan assembly constituency.
In Kota North and Pipalda constituencies:
Both the BJP and Congress have not yet announced their candidates for the Kota North and Pipalda assembly constituencies. Former MLAs Prahlad Gunjal and Mamta Sharma contested from here in the past. Both are also considered close to former Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje. While Prahlad Gunjal is running again as a BJP candidate from Kota North, former MLA Vidya Shankar Nandwana presented his nomination from Pipalda. Mamta Sharma, who previously contested from here, is now associated with the Congress. Kota North and Pipalda constituencies currently have Congress MLAs.
Kalpana Devi gets another chance in Ladpura:
In the Ladpura assembly constituency, the BJP has once again nominated the incumbent MLA Kalpana Devi. Earlier, the former MLA Bhavani Singh Rajawat submitted his nomination as a BJP candidate on Wednesday but the party did not give him a ticket. He also filed a form as an independent candidate, but he has now withdrawn from the race.
