\n

The by-elections in Agartala and Town Bardowali constituencies were necessitated after Sudip Roy Barman and Asish Saha quit as BJP MLAs and joined the Congress in February.<\/p>\n

Surma seat in the Dhalai district fell vacant after BJP legislator, Asish Das, was disqualified by Speaker Ratan Chakraborty and a by-poll to Jubarajnagar was necessitated following the death of sitting CPI (M) MLA Ramendra Chandra Debnath.<\/p>\n

Chief Minister Manik Saha, who is not a member of the assembly, is contesting from the Town Bardowali constituency against Congress nominee Asish Saha.<\/p>\n

Trinamul Congress and Left Front have fielded candidates in all four seats. The votes will be counted on June 26.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
