There is no clarity yet about whether the Congress will field its candidates
The BJP has fielded Dinesh Prajapati and Rambhai Mokaria for the two Rajya Sabha seats that fell vacant owing to the deaths of Congress’s Ahmed Patel and the BJP’s Abhay Bhardwaj.
Since by-elections to both seats are being held separately, the ruling BJP is set to win both, given its strength in the Assembly.
Both Mr. Prajapati and Mr. Mokaria will file their nomination papers on Thursday. The former is from a OBC community from north Gujarat, while the latter belongs to the Aboti Brahmin community from Porbandar.
