From Morbi, where a bridge collapse killed over 130 people two weeks ago, the party has replaced the sitting MLA, and instead chosen a former MLA who'd reportedly jumped into the river to save some of the victims of the collapse. Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel will fight from Ghatlodia. Announcing the names in Delhi, Union Minister Bhupendra Yadav said the MLAs were replaced with their consent.
