LEFT to go alone minus Congress in WB bypolls, releases list

The Left Front-led by CPI(M) has decided to go alone in the upcoming West Bengal bypolls. On Monday, they announced 5 candidates for the polls. Here is the list of candidates:

  • Sitai - Arun Kumar Barma [AIFB]
  • Madarihat - Padam Oraon [RSP]
  • Naihati - Debajyoti Mazumdar [CPI(ML) Liberation]
  • Medinipur - Mani Kuntal Khamrui [CPI]
  • Taldangra - Debkanti Mahanti [CPI(M)]

However, the 6th candidate for the Haroa seat has yet to be announced by the party. With this, candidates of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Trinamool (TMC), and Left Front have named their candidates. The coalition of Congress and Left in West Bengal seemed to be parting ways after Adhir Ranjan's removal as state Congress Chief. It will be interesting to see who will be the Haroa candidate of the Left while Congress is yet to open its cards.
