New Delhi, March 13
The Trinamool Congress (TMC) on Sunday announced former Union Minister Shatrughan Sinha as the party candidate for the April 12 bypoll to the Asansol Lok Sabha constituency.
The seat fell vacant after singer-turned-politician Babul Supriyo quit the BJP and joined the TMC following his removal from the Council of Ministers in July last year.
