The Constitution Club of India elections saw a unique contest, with BJP members going head-to-head, as highlighted by BJP MP Kangana Ranaut. She noted the confusion, particularly for new members, as it was the first time the election featured a BJP versus BJP scenario. The election was for the secretary position, featuring a contest between Rajiv Pratap Rudy, a seven-time MP, and former MP Sanjeev Balyan. Rudy had held the position unopposed for 25 years, making this election particularly noteworthy. Results were expected by 5 PM. Previous elections were held in 2009, 2014 and 2019.
The election saw a significant turnout, with over 500 votes cast, and included participation from various prominent figures. Union Home Minister Amit Shah, BJP National President JP Nadda, Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, and CPP Chairperson Sonia Gandhi were among those who cast their votes. Voting took place between 11 AM and 4 PM.
Sanjeev Kumar Balyan, a BJP candidate, framed the election as a platform for MPs and former MPs that transcended party lines. Rajiv Pratap Rudy, a BJP MP, praised the election as inclusive of all parties and a display of democratic principles.
