The list of candidates will not be released in BJP! The candidate can directly give the symbol; Congress will also adopt this formula in controversial areas.

Regarding the civic body elections, the BJP may adopt a new formula this time. The party has decided that instead of releasing a list of candidates, it will directly call them to the district office and assign symbols. For the divisions where opinion polls have been conducted, the civic body in-charge has been sent to their respective areas with an empty symbol signed by the state president. Now, the names that are finalized at the state BJP office will be approved by the concerned district president.
