1. Phulpur- BJP's Keshari Devi patel is currently the mp from Phulpur seat in Prayagraj district of Uttar Pradesh. There are about 20 lakh voters in Phulpur seat. This seat is dominated by Kurmi, Yadav and Muslim. This seat has been in limelight since 1952.Jawaharlal Nehru has been mp from here for 3 times. VP Singh, who became the prime minister of the country in 1989, has also been an mp from here. Janeshwar Mishra has also represented this seat.
Ashk says – Phulpur seat is the safest for Nitish in a direct fight between the opposition and the BJP. Here the equation is in his favor. If he steps into national politics again, this seat can be very beneficial for him.2 leaders (Jawahar Lal Nehru and VP Singh) who were MPs from Phulpur have been the prime minister of the country. Nitish can strengthen his claim by contesting from Phulpur.
2. Ambedkar Nagar- It came into existence for the first time in 2009, at present Ritesh Pandey of BSP is the mp from Ambedkar Nagar. This seat is dominated by Muslims and Dalits, but for the last 3 times only Brahmin leaders are reaching the Parliament.In the 2022 elections, the SP had won all the five seats in this district. The party has handed over the chair of national general secretary to ram AchalRajbhar and LaljiVerma of the district. Ambedkar nagar is considered to be a stronghold of the SP.
