2

Reasons for the selection of the candidate. The reasons as to selection shall be with reference to the qualifications, achievements and merit of the candidate concerned, and not mere "winnability" at the polls. 

Shri Raju Yadav is a popular leader of people's movements, who enjoys the trust and affection of common masses. He is being victimised by the administration through false cases, for leading struggles for the rights of peasants, youth and Dalit oppressed sections of society.

3

Reasons as to why other individuals without criminal antecedents could not be selected as candidates.

The cases against Raju Yadav are because of his antecedents as leader of people’s movements, and not criminal antecedents. We can see many leaders who are loved and trusted by the people have been implicated under false cases. We have chosen one of the best candidates who fights for the rights of people, and for an equitable and just society. Raju Yadav deserves to be a candidate for this election.
