Guwahati, May 15 (IBNS): Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is likely to announce its candidate list for the polls of Karbi Anglong Autonomous Council (KAAC) on May 16.

The council polls will be held on June 12.

BJP’s Assam unit president Ranjit Kumar Das on Monday said his party would likely to announce the candidate list on Tuesday.

“The party candidates will be finalized during the party meeting to be held tomorrow. BJP had already engaged its 24 legislators and other party leaders in each constituency under the council and the observers had submitted their reports,” Ranjit Kumar Das.

The BJP’s Assam unit president further said that, we are not assured that all present council members will again get party ticket.
