Raipur. Congress has made former CM Bhupesh Baghel its candidate from Rajnandgaon. In such a situation, CM Sai has given his response to the question of how confident BJP is about its victory. The Chief Minister said that Congress has made the election easier for Bhupesh Baghel by making him the candidate from Rajnandgaon.
Bhupesh Baghel is a tainted face. The public had rejected him in the last assembly elections, hence he is going to achieve a big victory in Rajnandgaon. It is noteworthy that Santosh Pandey is contesting from this seat for the second time from BJP while Bhupesh Baghel has become a candidate from this seat for the first time. Bhupesh has also contested elections from Durg and Raipur Lok Sabha in the past.
Now in Chhattisgarh, voting for the second phase is to be held on 26th April. In the second phase, 3 Lok Sabha seats are considered high profile. The three high profile seats of Chhattisgarh, Kanker, Mahasamund and Rajnandgaon Lok Sabha seats, are very important from the political point of view. Former Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel is contesting from Rajnandgaon on Congress ticket. Bhupesh Baghel is contesting from 2019 MP Santosh Pandey. This time also BJP has bet on Santosh Pandey. Congress has fielded Tamradhwaj Sahu, who was the Home Minister from Mahasamund.
