Akash Vijayvargiya is sitting MLA from Indore-3 Assembly seat. The party has fielded his father from Indore-1.

Since the day, the BJP released its first list, which included the name of Kailash Vijayvargiya and three Union Ministers – Narendra Singh Tomar, Faggan Singh Kulaste, and Prahlad Patel, resentment has started among Akash Vijayvargiya’s supporters.

Even Kailash Vijayvargiya has openly said that he wasn’t planed to contest the Assembly election. As the party has given ticket to senior Vijayvargiya, there is possibility that his son would not get the ticket.
