(The list above will be updated as and when more names are announced)

Meanwhile, reluctance of several top leaders of Telangana BJP to enter the race in the state poll has reportedly left party’s Central leaders in a dilemma.

While 88 candidates have been announced in three lists by BJP so far, names of state BJP chief and Union Minister G Kishan Reddy, Rajya Sabha member and OBC unit chief K Laxman, BJP national vice-president DK Aruna are among some key leaders who have not featured in either of the lists so far.

A number of factors are said to be behind the “strategic retreat” of these leaders, reported The Hindu, adding that many of them are holding positions in the All India BJP and state units. The BJP Central Election Committee, as mentioned in the report, had earlier decided that all the seniors, be it MPs or legislators, will have to mandatorily contest the assembly elections.
