Hyderabad: The Congress party-led people's front comprising Telugu Desam Party (TDP), Telangana Jana Samiti (TJS) and the Communist Party of India (CPI) finally appears to have found its feet ahead of the last date for filing nominations (Monday) for the upcoming Assembly polls. While the Congress, TDP and the CPI have already announced their contestants for most of the seats, the TJS announced its nominees for seats--Kapilavai Dileep Kumar (Malkajgari), Janardhan Reddy (Medak), Chindam Raj Kumar (Dubbak) and Bhavani Reddy (Siddipet).

TJS President Prof Kodandaram, who was aspiring to contest from the Jangaon seat, had to concede it to senior Congress leader Ponnala Lakshmaiah, who has a fairly good support base among Backward Classes in the constituency. While it is still unclear whether Kodandaram would contest in the polls, the TJS is yet to announce its candidates for four more seats.

Meanwhile, the Bharatiya Jana Party (BJP) released its third list of contestants with 20 members: Laxma Reddy - Yellareddy, Pratapa Ramakrishna - Vemulawada, Puppala Raghu - Huzurabad, Chada Srinivas Reddy - Husnabad, Akula Rajaiah - Medak, Dr G Ravi Kumar Goud - Narayankhed, B Rajeswar Rao Deshpande - Sangareddy, P Karunakar Reddy - Patancheru, Kotha Ashok Goud - Ibrahimpatnam, Kanjarla Prakash - Chevella, Devara Karunakar - Nampalli, Satish Goud - Secunderabad, Nagurao Namaji - Kodangal, Padmaja Reddy - Mahbubnagar, Rajani Madhava Reddy - Alampur, Sreeramoju Shanmukha - Nalgonda, Kasarla Lingaiah - Nakrekal, Jyothulu Hussaian Naik - Mahbubabad, Dr Vuppala Sarada - Khammam Dr Shyamal Rao - Madhira.
