There will be no impact on TMC – former minister

TMC made major changes in six assembly seats of Basirhat organizational district. TMC did not give tickets to the sitting MLAs of Sandeshkhali, Basirhat North, Basirhat South, Haroa, Hingalganj and Baduria. Burhanul Muqaddim Liton was selected as the candidate from Baduria. Responding to this, former minister Jyotipriya Mallik said that the party’s decision is final in the matter of selection of candidates. If someone leaves the party due to personal resentment, even if he is an MLA, it will not affect TMC.
