BJP Releases First List Of 52 Candidates For Telangana Polls; Eatala Rajender To Contest Against KCR

The saffron party also fielded MP Soyam Bapu Rao from the Boath seat, MP Arvind Dharmapuri from the Koratla and former party president Bandi Sanjay Kumar from the Karimnagar seat.

The Bharatiya Janata Party today released the first list of 52 candidates for the 119-member Telangana assembly polls. The BJP has fielded the chairman of the state election management committee Eatala Rajender from two seats- Gajwel and Huzurabad. This sets the tone for a high-stake election in the Gajwel seat where Rajender will contest against Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao. 

The saffron party also fielded MP Soyam Bapu Rao from the Boath seat, MP Arvind Dharmapuri from the Koratla and former party president Bandi Sanjay Kumar from the Karimnagar seat. Controversial MLA T Raja Singh will contest from the Goshamahal seat. It's notable that the BJP reinstated Raja Singh early this morning. He was suspended from the party in August over his remarks on Prophet Mohammad.
