“We have gotten our work done well, it will be a list of agreement candidates,” a senior Congress leader said.
While the Chief Minister left for Bengaluru on Tuesday evening after the two-day discussions, a few state Congress leaders were still in the national capital for discussions with the screening committee. The board is relied upon to proceed with its consultations throughout the following two days and tie the remaining details before making its proposals to the CEC. In excess of 1,000 aspirants had applied for the Congress tickets for the 224 constituencies.
