Other prominent candidates include Union ministers Piyush Goyal, Sadhvi Niranjan Jyoti, and Shantanu Thakur who are contesting from Mumbai North (Maharashtra), Fatehpur (UP), and Bangaon (WB), respectively. Other notable candidates include LJP (Ram Vilas) leader Chirag Paswan from Hajipur (Bihar), Shiv Sena’s Shrikant Shinde from Kalyan (Maharashtra), and BJP’s Rajiv Pratap Rudy and RJD president Lalu Prasad’s daughter Rohini Acharya, both from Saran (Bihar).

In Uttar Pradesh, five Union ministers are in the fray: Rajnath Singh (Lucknow), Smriti Irani (Amethi), Sadhvi Niranjan Jyoti, Kaushal Kishor (Mohanlalganj), and Bhanu Pratap Singh Verma (Jalaun). The Lucknow East assembly constituency will also witness a bypoll.

Rahul Gandhi, Raebareli and a battle with a friend-turned-foe

Rahul Gandhi, who is contesting from Wayanad in Kerala, is also fighting for Rae Bareli, a traditional stronghold of the Nehru-Gandhi family. His mother, Sonia Gandhi, has represented the constituency since 2004. BJP has fielded UP minister Dinesh Pratap Singh against him. In Amethi, Smriti Irani, who defeated Rahul Gandhi in 2019, is seeking a second term, while the Congress has fielded KL Sharma, an aide of the Gandhi family.

Senior BJP leader Rajnath is eyeing a fourth term from Lucknow, facing off against SP MLA Ravidas Mehrotra from Lucknow Central. In the Faizabad Lok Sabha seat, which includes the temple town of Ayodhya, the main contest is between sitting BJP MP Lallu Singh, who is seeking a hat-trick, and Awadhesh Prasad, the SP MLA from Milkipur (SC) assembly constituency in Ayodhya.

The constituency has more than 500 centenarians among its 17.37 lakh eligible voters, and political observers expect a high turnout following the huge crowds at election rallies and roadshows in the first major political battle post the abrogation of Article 370 in 2019.
