New Delhi: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is likely to release the second list of candidates for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections on Wednesday.
According to reports, names of 150 more candidates are likely to be announced. The BJP had held its second central election committee (CEC) meeting to discuss candidates in Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Karnataka, and Haryana on Monday.
The BJP has formed alliances with the Telugu Desam Party and Jana Sena for both the Lok Sabha and assembly elections in Andhra Pradesh.
The saffron party had named candidates for 195 seats in 16 states and two UT last week after the first CEC. It included 34 Union Ministers, including Amit Shah, Rajnath Singh, and Smriti Irani. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will contest from the Varanasi constituency, the seat he currently represents in the Lower House of Parliament.
The Congress has so far announced candidates for 82 Lok Sabha seats.
