Shimla – Union minister J P Nadda has been elected unopposed to the Rajya Sabha from the lone seat in Himachal Pradesh. No other candidate was in the fray and the returning officer declared him elected as the deadline for withdrawing the nominations ended. The seat had fallen vacant following the expiry of Nadda’s six year term. Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur, ministers and legislators congratulated Nadda for re-election to the Upper House. He thanked the party leaders and MLAs of both the BJP and the Congress. The Congress had decided not to field its candidate as the BJP had 44 members in the 68 member House.
