The Indian National Congress (INC) has released the names of their candidates contesting for the Lok Sabha 2024 elections.
Principal Opposition party Congress is trying to come back to power after losing to the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in two consecutive general elections. The party is part of the Opposition bloc INDIA, and has sealed alliance in some key States such as Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Assam and Bihar among others.
