BJP Lok Sabha members, who won their seats in 2019 with a margin of 1-2% are unlikely to be re-fielded by the party in the general elections, party source said, hinting at the saffron outfit’s unwillingness to take any chances in its march towards bagging 350-400 seats in the coming general elections.

In 2019, 27 BJP Lok Sabha election contestants had won by a vote margin of 1% or less. Those who won by a vote margin of 2% or less numbered 48. Sources said that most of these 75 sitting MPs are unlikely to be re-fielded by the BJP as there seems to be a high chance of their defeat.

Apart from these, around 61 Lok Sabha MPs have crossed a certain age and there are 20 MPs who have won from the same seat in three successive elections. On all these seats, barring a few exceptions, the BJP is planning to change its candidates.
