CHANDIGARH: Putting all speculations to rest, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Sunday announced former Haryana transport and jails minister from Panipat, Krishan Lal Panwar, as its candidate for the Rajya Sabha seat of the party.
The Congress too is expected to announce its candidate on Monday. Tuesday is the last day of filing of nomination papers for the two seats of Rajya Sabha which will fall vacant as BJP's Dushyant Gautam and party-supported Subhash Chandra are retiring.
