Union Minister Pralhad Joshi said Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar will contest the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
However, he said the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is yet to decide where they would contest from.
"It is appearing in the media. More or less it is final that they (Nirmala Sitharaman and Jaishankar) will contest the Lok Sabha elections. It has not been decided yet from where they will fight, whether it is in Karnataka or some other state," Joshi, who holds the Coal and Mines portfolio, told reporters on Monday.
To a question whether it will be Bengaluru, Joshi said, "How can I answer when nothing has been finalised?"
Sitharaman and Jaishankar are currently Rajya Sabha members from Karnataka and Gujarat respectively.
