BJP gave ticket to Sanjeev Sharma
The BJP has chosen Sanjeev Sharma as its candidate. At the same time, the SP has also declared a Dalit candidate, Singh Raj Jatav, as its candidate. This time, the SP has played the social engineering card by fielding Dalit candidates along with its party’s traditional voters, Yadavs and Muslims. During the nomination, Singh Jatav expressed his confidence in the party leadership and expressed his gratitude. He boasted about his victory and said that like Faizabad, Ghaziabad results will also be shocking this time.
