BJP to release first list of 190 candidates today

Mumbai, Sep 26 (IBNS): With the 25-year-old alliances with Shiv Sena falling apart over seat-sharing stalemate, the Bharatiya Janata party (BJP) is now getting ready to announce its first list of 190 candidates on Friday for the Maharashtra elections to be held on October 15, reports said.

According to sources, the party is likely to contest in about 250 of the total 288 Assembly segments and will leave the rest number of seats for its smaller allies.

 

The last day of filing nominations in the state is on Saturday and all parties are now making efforts to finalise the list of candidates.

 

Maharashtra is set to witness a multi-cornered election for the first time in decades with the BJP, Shiv Sena, Congress, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) and Raj Thackeray’s Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) contesting the mega battle separately.
