HIMACHAL PRADESH ELECTIONS 2022: CONGRESS CANDIDATE LIST 

Elections in Himachal Pradesh are significant, as in the last 50 years, no ruling party has returned to power in Himachal Pradesh. There have been 11 assembly elections since 1972, and each time the ruling party has been defeated. 

Himachal Pradesh is a swing state that has been changing the incumbent party from power (between the BJP and Congress) for the last three decades. The state has been witnessing a direct fight between the BJP and Congress.
