Rajasthan Assembly Elections: The wait for the release of the first list of Congress candidates increased, so many names have been approved.

The wait for the first list of Congress candidates for this year's assembly elections in Rajasthan is increasing. This list could not be released even on Wednesday. It was likely to be released after the Central Election Committee meeting held at the AICC headquarters on Wednesday. Many Congress stalwarts including Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi and Ashok Gehlot were present in this meeting. 

If reports are to be believed, the names of about fifty Congress candidates for the upcoming assembly elections have been approved. Now this list of Congress can be released after the visit of National General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi to Rajasthan.

Priyanka Gandhi will address a public meeting in Sikrai in Dausa district on October 20. That means the first list of Congress is now likely to come on 20th October. Congress brainstormed the names of the candidates to release the first list on Tuesday.
