LS polls: Swami Prasad Maurya to contest from Kushinagar

Hindustan Times  

GORAKHPUR: Former UP minister and Rashtriya Shoshit Samaaj Party president Swami Prasad Maurya announced on Sunday that he will contest the Lok Sabha elections from Kushinagar. Rashtriya Shoshit Samaaj Party chief Swami Prasad Maurya Maurya, who has served as a three-time MLA from the Padrauna, contested the Lok Sabha election from Kushinagar in 2009 but was defeated by then Congress candidate RPN Singh by a margin of over 20 thousand votes. In a post on X in Hindi, Maurya said that since the formation of the Rashtriya Shoshit Samaj Party, he has been working to strengthen the INDIA bloc and secure victories. The announcement of Swami Prasad Maurya as a candidate holds significance following the nomination of Vijay Dubey from the BJP for a third term, especially as the Samajwadi Party and BSP have yet to finalise their candidates for this seat.
