Vijayawada:
Railway Minister Suresh Prabhu will be the TDP-BJP combine's candidate for a Rajya Sabha seat from Andhra Pradesh in the election slated for June 11, Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu announced tonight.
Union Minister of State for Science and Technology Y Satyanarayana Chowdary has also been re-nominated for the second Rajya Sabha seat, while former minister TG Venkatesh will be the third candidate, Chandrababu Naidu announced.
He, however, remained evasive on whether or not a fourth candidate would be fielded to spoil the lone opposition YSRC's chance of winning one seat.
A total of four seats are to be filled from Andhra Pradesh.
The TDP-BJP combine can comfortably bag three seats while the YSRC stands the chance of winning its maiden seat in the Upper House of Parliament.
