Congress (INC) First List of Candidates For Gujarat Assembly Polls 2017

It is going to be difficult to tell which party will win this election but one thing is clear as per the rumour, this strong competition is between Congress and BJP. Congress will try to dominate BJP raising the issue of demonisation and GST. It will be interesting to see how BJP tackles this situation and maintains its old status in Gujarat. Congress has declared the first list of candidate for first phase poll and the other party as well declared their list of candidate. In this Gujarat legislative assembly election, Congress has nothing to lose but BJP's reputation is on stake. In reality, this election will be a contest between the BJP vs BJP.

The Congress declared its first candidate list for Gujarat election on 19 Nov 2017, the poll will be held on 9th and 14th of December 2017 and the result would be declared along with the result of State Assembly Election of Himachal Pradesh which is 18th of December 2017.
