Congress discusses candidates for Rajasthan
The screening committee held discussions on the names of the candidates on all seats. Despite the schedule for the election announced by the Election Commission, the Congress did not release any list of candidates which gave an opportunity to rival Bharatiya Janata Party to attack. It is expected that the grand old party will announce the first list of candidates. The state will vote on November 25.
