Having served as the 23rd Air Force Chief from September 30, 2019, to September 30, 2021, RKS Bhadauria brings a wealth of experience to his new political affiliation.
Hailing from Bah tehsil in Agra district, speculation is rife that the BJP might nominate him as the Lok Sabha candidate from Ghaziabad.
Notably, the Ghaziabad constituency currently has military veteran General VK Singh as its sitting Lok Sabha MP. General VK Singh has represented the constituency twice, first in 2014 and subsequently in 2019. However, the BJP is yet to announce its candidates for the Ghaziabad seat despite the release of four lists of candidates.
