TMC announces candidates on all 42 Lok Sabha seats in West Bengal, Mahua Moitra re-fielded from Krishnanagar

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s nephew Abhishek Banerjee on Sunday (March 10) announced candidates of Trinamool Congress (TMC) for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. The party will go solo in the general elections in the state, ditching Congress which is a part of the I.N.D.I.A bloc.

In a massive announcement, Abhishek Banerjee will hit the electoral field and has been given a ticket from Diamond Harbour. Mahua Moitra who was expelled from Lok Sabha has been fielded from Krishnanagar. Former cricketer Yusuf Pathan has been fielded from Baharampur.

Mahua Moitra had won the 2019 Lok Sabha election from the Krishnanagar constituency in the Nadia district. She will run for the re-election from the same seat, after being disqualified from the 17th Lok Sabha in an alleged cash-for-query scam.
