The others are Ramchandra Chaudhary from Ajmer, Sudarshan Singh Rawat from Rajsamand, and Damodar Gurjar from Bhilwara.

The Congress has so far decided on candidates for 24 of the state's 25 seats, of which it is contesting 22 and has left the Nagaur seat for Hanuman Beniwal's Rashtriya Loktantrik Party (RLP) and Sikar for the CPI-M.
