Politics News / BJP President JP Nadda will not contest Lok Sabha elections - will become Rajya Sabha MP only

Politics News: Bharatiya Janata Party national president JP Nadda will not contest the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. Sources claimed that he will again become a Rajya Sabha MP. It is being told that JP Nadda can be sent from Uttar Pradesh for the next term of Rajya Sabha. Actually, as the national president of BJP, Nadda has a huge responsibility to contest the elections, hence he will not contest the Lok Sabha elections. Let us tell you that BJP's National President JP Nadda has recently retired from Rajya Sabha.

Nirmala and Jaishankar will also not contest Lok Sabha elections

Not only this, sources have also claimed that current Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and Foreign Minister Jaishankar also have no chances of contesting the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. Both these leaders are Rajya Sabha MPs. Let us tell you that the tenure of Nirmala Sitharaman and S Jaishankar is still more than 3 years left, hence they may be exempted from contesting the Lok Sabha elections. Apart from this, Dharmendra Pradhan, Bhupendra Yadav and Muraleedharan will contest the Lok Sabha elections.

BJP will field many ministers in the elections

It is believed that there is little chance of Nadda going to Rajya Sabha from his home state Himachal Pradesh because there is a Congress government in Himachal and the number of BJP MLAs there is less. Therefore, the chances of JP Nadda going to Rajya Sabha from Uttar Pradesh are high. Sources also said that BJP can field central ministers like Dharmendra Pradhan, Bhupendra Yadav and Muraleedharan in the election battle.

Many ministers including Nadda retire from Rajya Sabha

Let us tell you that the Election Commission has recently issued the election notification for 56 Rajya Sabha seats on 27 February. The list of MPs retiring during this tenure includes JP Nadda, Manmohan Singh and 9 other Union Ministers. These also include Railway Minister Ashwani Vaishnav, Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, Environment Minister Bhupendra Yadav and Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya.
