NEW DELHI: The Bharatiya Janata Party on Thursday released the first list for the upcoming general election, which includes 21 candidates from Chhattisgarh and 39 candidates from Madhya Pradesh, with 5 women in each state, which are yet to be announced.

The party appointed Durg MP Vijay Baghel from Patan, currently represented by Chhattisgarh Chief Minister and Congress leader Bhupesh Baghel.

The names were decided at a meeting of the BJP's Central Election Commission on Wednesday, chaired by party leader JP Nadda, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union ministers Rajnath Singh and Amit Shah and other senior leaders.

In Chhattisgarh, the BJP has fielded Baghel from Patan, Bhulan Singh Maravi from Premnagar, Laxmi Rajwade from Bhatgaon, Shakuntala Singh Porthe from Pratappur (ST), Sarla Kosaria from Saraipali (SC), Alka Chandrakar from Khallari, Gita Ghasi Sahu from Khujji and Maniram Kashyap from Bastar (ST), among others.

In Madhya Pradesh, the BJP deployed Sarla Vijendra Rawat from Sabalgarh, Priyanka Meena from Chachaoura, Lalita Yadav from Chhatarpur, Anchal Sonkar from Jabalpur Purba (SC), Nirmala Bhuriya from Petlawad, Jhabua (ST) Bhanu Bhuriya and Alok Sharma from Bhopal Others include Uttar and Dhruv Narayan Singh from Central Bhopal.

The party's decision to announce the first list of candidates so early underlines the significance it has attached to five state elections, the last round of assembly contest before the all-important Lok Sabha polls. Besides Chhattisgarh and MP, Rajasthan, Telangana and Mizoram are scheduled to go to polls later this year.

The BJP, which holds power in Madhya Pradesh alone, is waging an intense campaign to overthrow the Congress government in Chhattisgarh.

The BJP in 2018 had won only 15 of the 90 seats in the Chhattisgarh assembly against 68 of the Congress while its tally of seats was 109 against 114 of the Congress in the 230-member Madhya Pradesh assembly.
