The Congress released its second list of 32 candidates for the December 7 assembly elections in Rajasthan on Saturday, fielding former BJP leader Jaswant Singh's son, Manvendra Singh, against Chief Minister Vansundhara Raje from Jhalrapatan constituency.

The second list was released by the Congress general secretary and in-charge of Rajasthan Mukul Wasnik.

The opposition party had declared 152 candidates in the first list on Thursday night.

Manvendra Singh, a former BJP MLA from Sheo, in September quit the saffron party to join the Congress ahead of the assembly election.
