BJP and Congress Prepare for Wayanad and Kedarnath Polls

The BJP has announced Navya Haridas as its candidate for the upcoming Wayanad Lok Sabha bypoll scheduled on November 13, where she will face off against Congress's Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and CPI's Sathyan Mokeri. Haridas, a two-time councillor and BJP parliamentary party leader in Kozhikode Corporation, emphasizes the need for local development in Wayanad. Meanwhile, the Kedarnath assembly bypoll is set for November 20, following the death of BJP MLA Shaila Rani Rawat, with both BJP and Congress preparing intensely for a crucial contest. The BJP aims to recover from previous losses, bolstered by new projects announced in Kedarnath, while Congress seeks a third consecutive victory in recent bypolls. Both parties are deploying significant resources and senior leadership to secure the seat, underscoring the importance of these elections in the current political landscape.
