The Congress has released the names of a total of 199 candidates for the upcoming Rajasthan assembly election across seven lists. Voting for the 200-member assembly will take place in a single-phased manner on November 25 with results due on December 3.
In its seventh list released on November 5, the Congress named 21 more candidates from the upcoming Rajasthan polls. Shanti Dhariwal was given a ticket from the Kota North Assembly Constituency.
On November 4, the party named 22 candidates as part of its sixth list. It denied a ticket to Public Health Engineering Department Minister Mahesh Joshi from his Hawa Mahal constituency in Jaipur and fielded its Jaipur city unit president RR Tiwari in place of Joshi.
Incumbent Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot will contest from the Sardarpura constituency while his deputy Sachin Pilot has been nominated for Tonk.
