Gujarat Cong to finalise candidates one year in advance for upcoming assembly polls

Ahmedabad, Jul 12 (UNI) The Congress party in Gujarat has decided to announce the names of its party candidates for the 2017 State assembly elections a year in advance so that the candidates have ample time to establish rapport with the voters in their constituency.
State Congress president Bharatsinh Solanki and Gujarat party in-charge Gurudas Kamat told journalists here today that the party has asked aspiring candidates to submit their names along with the names of 15 party workers for each polling booth in their constituency by August 15.
“We plan to announce names of all the 182 candidates before December 31 this year. This will give candidates ample time to work in their constituency and if there is any issue with the candidate, it also gives party time to change him or her,” Mr Kamat said.
There is no row at position 0.
