Constituency profile
The Raipur Lok Sabha constituency in Naxal-affected Chhattisgarh covers districts of Raipur and Baloda Bazar.
Ramesh Bais of the BJP who won from here for the first time in 1989 has represented Raipur in Lok Sabha seven times. Since his first win in 1989, he only lost to Vidya Charan Shukla of the Congress 1991 and is currently the sitting MP. In 2014, he defeated Satya Narayan Sharma alias Sattu Bhaiya of the Congress by more than 1.7 lakh votes.
He was, however, been denied ticket by the BJP this time following the party Centre Election Committee's (CEC) decision to not repeat candidates in any of the 11 seats in the state.
The seat is one of the strongholds of the BJP in the state, thanks to Ramesh Bais whose name has become synonymous with the Raipur Lok Sabha constituency.
