The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Wednesday released its seventh candidate list for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. The seventh list mentioned the names of two candidates nominated from Maharashtra's Amravati and Chitradurga constituency of Karnataka.
The saffron party has fielded Navneet Rana from the Amravati Lok Sabha reserved (SC) seat in Maharashtra and Govind Karjol from Chitradurga reserved constituency (SC) in Karnataka.
Navneet Rana is a sitting member of parliament from Amravati constituency. She was elected as an independent candidate in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections with the support of Congress and the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) defeating Anandrao Adsul of Shiv Sena.
