Early Times Report

Jammu, Aug 26: For the first time in the history of the party, the BJP leadership was forced to withdraw the list of candidates of 44 candidates within minutes after the same was released from the official social media post of the party.
Two hours after withdrawing the list issued on Monday morning, the BJP released two fresh lists comprising 15 and one candidates respectably for the seats that are going for polling for the first phase of elections.
While releasing the revised list, the national general secretary of BJP Arun Singh stated that the list of candidates for the second and third phases of the Assembly elections would be considered “null and void”.
In a surprising move, the BJP withdrew its initial list of 44 candidates for the Jammu and Kashmir assembly elections just after releasing it.
The party is expected to make some changes and release a revised list soon.
Earlier, the BJP had announced its first list of candidates, including Devender Singh Rana from Nagrota, for the 90-member Jammu and Kashmir Assembly elections.
The original list included 15 candidates for the first phase, 10 for the second phase, and 19 for the third ph

se.
The BJP’s Central Election Committee had met on Sunday evening to finalize the party’s candidates.
The Jammu and Kashmir assembly elections will be held in three phases on September 18, 25, and October 1, with vote counting scheduled for October 4.
In the 2014 assembly elections, the BJP had won 25 seats, and this time, the party is working hard to counter the challenge from a resurgent Congress, which has formed an alliance with the National Conference, particularly in the Jammu region.
After withdrawing its initial list of 44 candidates, the BJP released two fresh lists with 16 names for the first phase of the Jammu and Kashmir assembly elections.
The new list features the same candidates as the original list for the first phase, with no changes made. Later, another list with a single name was released.
The original list had excluded three key names: Jammu and Kashmir BJP president Ravinder Raina, and former Deputy Chief Ministers Nirmal Singh and Kavinder Gupta.
The initial list sparked protests at the BJP office in Jammu, with party loyalists and senior leaders objecting to the selection of political turncoats over loyal and time-tested party leaders.
