The Bharatiya Janata Party announced has that Navya Haridas, a two-time councillor in the Kozhikode Corporation, will be the National Democratic Alliance candidate for the Wayanad Lok Sabha by-election.
As report by PTI, Haridas will be pitted against Congress’s Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and Communist Party of India’s Sathyan Mokeri, the Left candidate, in the high-profile constituency in the 13 November by-election.
As the BJP released its candidate list for the upcoming by-elections in various states, Haridas, a young woman leader in the saffron party, was named as the party’s nominee for this crucial seat.
The by-election for Wayanad LS seat became necessary after Rahul Gandhi, who won the Lok Sabha polls from there and Rae Bareli constituency, decided to vacate it.
