KOTA (CHHATTISGARH): An unpredictable and closely contested triangular electoral battle is unfolding in this assembly constituency where Dr. Renu Jogi, the wife of former Chief Minister Ajit Jogi and a legislator from Janta Congress Chhattisgarh (JCC-J), is making efforts to retain the seat for the fifth time.
The opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has put forward Jashpur royal family member Prabal Pratap Singh Judeo, the son of the late Dilip Singh Judeo, known for his anti-conversion Ghar Vapsi campaign. The Congress has chosen a political novice Atal Shrivastava to contest in what has traditionally been a Congress bastion.
