With the BJP releasing its second list of 39 candidates for the upcoming Madhya Pradesh Assembly polls, State Congress chief Kamal Nath has claimed the ruling party has accepted defeat in M.P. and played its "last bet of false hope".
In the second list issued on Monday night (September 25), the BJP has fielded seven Lok Sabha members, including Union Ministers Faggan Singh Kulaste, Prahlad Singh Patel and Narendra Singh Tomar. The BJP also fielded party general secretary Kailash Vijayvargiya.
The BJP has so far declared candidates for 78 out of the total 230 seats in Madhya Pradesh, including its first list of 39 names released in August.
