A first: BJP to contest more seats than Congress in Lok Sabha elections

This year, BJP has announced 437 candidates. While, Congress has named 423 only, with a couple of more seats to be announced in UP. Congress was always a national party, its roots going back to pre-Independence, while BJP, mutating from its forerunner Bharatiya Jana Sangh, was for a long time with minimal national footprint.
