Sarvajan Sanatan Party Seeks Candidates for UP Assembly Elections

Former CBI chief M Nageshwar Rao has entered the political arena in Uttar Pradesh. His party Sarvajan Sanatan Party has started seeking applications from potential candidates for the upcoming assembly elections. Hyderabad-based retired IPS officer Nageshwar Rao took charge as the party's national president about a month ago. He said that his party is starting the first phase of the process of selecting potential candidates for all 403 assembly seats in Uttar Pradesh. The state is due for elections early next year. He said on social media platform X. To join the party, applicants must have faith in the ideology, core objectives, and policies of the Sarvajan Sanatan Party. Also, the applicant must be an Indian citizen, enrolled in the voter list of any assembly constituency in Uttar Pradesh, and complete the minimum age of 25 years by the date of scrutiny of nomination papers. The former CBI additional director, who got the charge of the office in 2019, said that "India needs to come out of politics with the objective of unifying India and re-inventing their political party on the basis of religion."
