  • With the bypolls being declared for two more seats - Radhanpur and Bayad- speculations are rife about who will be the candidates for the same.
  • While former MLA of Radhanpur Alpesh Thakor is likely to be given a ticket for the seat, things are not clear as far as Dhavalsinh Zala is concerned.

  • In all, polls have been declared for six seats so far and the BJP is likely to make a clean sweep in all of them.
  • Of the six seats, the party was in power in three of them while two - Radhanpur and Bayad - had been with the Congress. One seat - Lunawada - was won by an independent candidate, who eventually joined the BJP. 
  • It should be noted that both Thakor and Zala had won the seat for the Congress, but had resigned as MLA after both of them voted for the BJP in the Rajya Sabha elections.
