Bhartiya Tribal Party to fight 7 Lok Sabha seats in Gujarat

Deccan Chronicle  

Ahmedabad: Spelling trouble for the Congress party in Gujarat, leader of the Bhartiya Tribal Party and MLA from Jhagadia constituency, Chhotu Vasava, has announced that his party will fight seven Lok Sabha seats in the state, including Bharuch, which is the home pitch of Congress stalwart Ahmed Patel. Seven-term MLA and popular ‘dabang’ leader, Mr Vasava formed the BTP just a month ahead of the assembly elections in the state in 2017 and contested two seats in alliance with Congress. Both father and son are believed to have a strong hold over tribal votes in south Gujarat, especially in the Bharuch Lok Sabha constituency. Congress party leaders admit that their party will have to form an alliance with the BTP if it wants to win Bharuch.
