The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Sunday released its first list of 99 candidates for the upcoming Maharashtra Assembly elections, including the name of the state's Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis.
The AAP has fielded Dinesh Thakor from Kheralu, Jayantilal M Patel from Visnagar, Bhaskar Patel from Mansa and Sandeep Singh Raj from Padra.
The urban Trinamul Congress supporters erupted in protest in several districts across the state shortly after the broadcast of the candidate lists by the ruling party for the elections in 108 civic bodies. In some areas, the police had to intervene standing as wall between the factional groups at loggerheads on the road in Burdwan East and Bankura, and in some areas the district leadership were detained inside their offices by the unruly warring groups.
Many activists from Kidderpore, Garden Reach and Metiabruz raised slogans accusing a leader of bias in candidates’ selection from these areas. Things came to such a pass that one of the aspirants threatened himself on fire outside Bidhan Bhavan. His name figured in a subsequent list of candidates.
