New Delhi, March 13 (SocialNews.XYZ) With Friday fixed as the last day for the filing of nominations for the March 26 Rajya Sabha polls, quite a few political heavyweights in different states are slated to file their papers, including Jyotiraditya Scindia in Madhya Pradesh.
A former Congress leader, Scindia returned to state capital Bhopal a day earlier after joining the BJP in Delhi. He is slated to file his nomination in Bhopal around 2 pm.
