Cricketer Yusuf Pathan Among 42 Names in TMC’s LS Election Candidates List

WEST BENGAL: On Sunday, the Trinamool Congress unveiled its candidates for all 42 Lok Sabha seats for the upcoming 2024 elections.

This announcement was made by Abhishek Banerjee during the Brigrade Ground march, marking a significant development amid ongoing seat-sharing discussions with the INDIA bloc.

Notably, former cricketer Yusuf Pathan has been named as the Trinamool’s candidate for Baharampur, potentially challenging Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury.

Another notable aspect from the Trinamool’s candidate list is the exclusion of sitting MP and actress Nusrat Jahan from the 2024 lineup, particularly in the Basirhat constituency, which includes Sandeshkhali.
