The core committee of the Bharatiya Janata Party has also cleared 11 more names of the remaining 23 constituencies for the Himachal assembly polls.
Vidhan Sabha speaker Tulsi Ram has been denied ticket while the name of sitting Kinnaur MLA Tejwant Singh Negi has been approved. The core panel, which comprised central leaders, party national general secretary JP Nadda, party incharge Kalraj Mishra and his deputy Shyam Jajju, decided that certain names that are under dispute be sent to central parliamentary board’s approval.
Col Inder Singh’s name has been cleared from Sarkaghat, while Rajinder Garg is party nominee from Ghumarwin. Balak Ram’s ticket has been cleared from Rohru while Sheela will contest from Solan. The names of candidates from Chopal and Shimla Rural have been withheld again. The core group did not reach a decision on the rest of 11 seats as deadlock over ticket allocation in Kangra district continued. Sources said the final decision on 11 constituencies will be taken on Monday.
