The Fatehpur Sikri Lok Sabha constituency is one of the 80 seats in Uttar Pradesh. The parliamentary seat is currently held by BJP's Choudhary Babulal, who has been snubbed by his party.
Babulal, an influential Jat leader, had defeated Seema Upadhyay of the BSP by over 1.73 lakh votes.
Fatehpur Sikri Lok Sabha constituency came into existence following the delimitation exercise of 2008. Raj Babbar, who had just left the Samajwadi Party to join the Congress, contested from here but lost to BSP's Seema Upadhyay.
In 2019 Lok Sabha elections, the BJP has fielded Raj Kumar Chaher while sitting MP Choudhary Babulal has been denied ticket by the party leadership. Chaher will face Shreebhagwan Sharma alias Guddu Pandit of the BSP and Raj Babbar of the Congress.
This is one of the very few seats where the Congress, which was not included in the BSP-SP-RLD 'Mahagathbandhan', has some chance. UP Congress president Babbar, a popular Bollywood actor and a two-term Lok Sabha MP from neighbouring Agra Lok Sabha, has made the contest triangular.
Fatehpur, a tourist attraction due to its Mughal-era monuments, is a part of Agra district in Uttar Pradesh. The Fatehpur Sikri Lok Sabha constituency comprises five Assembly constituencies - Agra Rural, Fatehpur Sikri, Kheragarh, Fatehabad and Bah.
UP is facing a three-pronged battle between the BJP, the Congress and BSP-SP-RLD alliance. Under the alliance's seat-sharing formula, the Mayawati-led Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) is contesting on 38 Lok Sabha seats of the total 80 seats, Akhilesh Yadav's Samajwadi Party on 37 seats and the Chaudhary Ajit Singh's Rashtriya Lok Dal (RLD) on three seats. The alliance has left two for Congress' Sonia Gandhi (Raebareli) and Rahul Gandhi (Amethi).
The polling in Fatehpur Sikri Lok Sabha constituency will be held in the second phase of Lok Sabha elections on April 18. The results of the Lok Sabha election 2019 will be declared on May 23.
