Congress veteran Kapil Sibal on Wednesday filed his nomination for Rajya Sabha elections, in the presence of Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav.
Sibal is one of the three candidates which the Samajwadi Party will be sending to the Upper House. Reports claims that deliberations are underway over the names of RLD chief Jayant Chaudhary and former Kannauj MP and wife of Akhilesh Yadav, Dimple Yadav.
Buzz over Sibal’s name as Samajwadi Party’s choice for Rajya Sabha gained momentum ever since the senior advocate took up the case of SP strongman Azam Khan, who walked out of the jail earlier this week.
Heaping praise on Sibal, Khan had Tuesday said: “I will be the happiest if the party (SP) is thinking of fielding him (Sibal) as a candidate for Rajya Sabha. He is competent and deserves it.”
