Political Drama Unfolds in Himachal Pradesh Ahead of Lok Sabha Elections
In the hilly terrains of Himachal Pradesh, the political arena is buzzing with anticipation as discussions and deliberations are underway in Delhi regarding the candidates for the four Lok Sabha seats in the state. The Congress Working Committee in Delhi is currently in session, contemplating the names of potential contenders for the upcoming elections. Leading the charge from Himachal Pradesh are Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu, Deputy CM Mukesh Agnihotri, and Pradesh Congress President Pratibha Singh, all actively participating in the crucial meeting. The Congress camp is deep in discussions regarding the selection of candidates for the impending electoral battle.
With the Lok Sabha elections scheduled for June 1st in Himachal Pradesh, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has wasted no time in announcing candidates for two seats, while the Congress is still in the process of finalizing its contenders. The four Lok Sabha constituencies in Himachal Pradesh are Shimla, Mandi, Kangra, and Hamirpur, each of which holds significant political importance in the state.
In the Shimla Lok Sabha constituency, several names are being tossed around during the deliberations, including Amit Nanda, Sohan Lal, Kaushal Mungta, Vinod Sultanpuri, and Dayal Pyari. However, only one lucky candidate will ultimately secure the ticket as Shimla remains a reserved seat. Similarly, discussions are underway for the Hamirpur seat, with the names of Satpal Rajvadha and Ram Lal Thakur in contention. Notably, the Hamirpur seat has been under BJP’s control for the past 35 years, adding to the stakes of the upcoming election.
Meanwhile, in the Kangra constituency, discussions revolve around potential candidates such as Asha Kumari, Raghuvir Singh Bali, and Sunil Rana. However, it’s worth mentioning that R.S. Bali has already declined to contest the elections. On the other hand, preparations are underway to field the incumbent Member of Parliament, Pratibha Singh, for re-election from the Mandi constituency. Pratibha Singh had emerged victorious in a recent by-election from this seat.
