Bhopal, Oct 21 : The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Saturday released the fifth list of 92 candidates for the Madhya Pradesh Assembly elections scheduled to be held on November 17. With this, the saffron party has announced 228 candidates for a total of 230 Assembly seats in the state. In the fresh list, the BJP has also cleared the air around the candidature of Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia. After his aunt and state minister Yashodhara Raje Scindia announced not contesting the upcoming election citing health issues, the political circle in the state was abuzz with speculation that she might have vacated the Shivpuri seat for her nephew. However, the Union Minister won't be contesting the upcoming election. The BJP has fielded Devendra Kumar Jain from Shivpuri, and Maya Singh from the Gwalior East constituency. The party has fielded Narayan Singh Kushwaha from Gwalior West. Also, the BJP has fielded Siddharth Tiwari from Teonthar assembly constituency of Rewa district, replacing its sitting MLA Shyamlal Dwivedi. Siddharth, who is the grandson of former Madhya Pradesh Assembly Speaker (late) Sriniwas Tiwari and son of former Congress MP Sundarlal Tiwari, left the grand old party a few days ago. With Siddharth switching to the BJP after getting denied ticket from Tenothar, the Tiwari family's five decades-long association with the grand old party came to an end. The BJP has fielded senior BJP leader Gaurishnkar Bisen's daughter Mausam Bisen for the Balaghat seat, which was her father's political stronghold for the last few decades. A total of 12 women candidates have been fielded out of 92 candidates announced on Saturday. /IANS
