A day after the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) announced its candidates
for 28 parliamentary constituencies in Uttar Pradesh, the Bahujan Samaj
Party (BSP) on Friday released its first list of 11 candidates for the
state.
The party has declared candidates on three Scheduled Caste seats of Nagina, Bulandshahr and Agra and politically crucial seats of Saharanpur and Meerut.
While the BSP has fielded local businessman Fazlur Rahman against BJP's Raghav Lakhanpal in Saharanpur, Haji Mohammed Yaqub will contest against two-time BJP MP Rajendra Agrawal in Meerut.
The list has come hours after BSP released a list of star campaigners that included the name of Mayawati's nephew Akash Anand. Last week, BSP alliance partner SP had released its first list of candidates for the upcoming polls. While SP patriarch Mulayam Singh will contest from Mainpuri, party chief Akhilesh Yadav’s cousins Dharmendra Yadav and Akshay Yadav will contest from Badaun and Firozabad, respectively.
