INSANE: Left front s electoral understanding with the indian secular front falls flat - The Real Truth

The attempts to forge an electoral understanding between the Left Front and Indian Secular Front (ISF) in West Bengal for the upcoming Lok Sabha election fell flat on Thursday with the ISF announcing candidates for 14 seats.

ISF MLA Naushad Siddique, who had made tall claims about contesting from the Diamond Harbour Lok Sabha seat against Trinamool Congress’ Abhishek Banerjee, backed out from the contest. The ISF has fielded Majnu Laskar from the seat.

The ISF has also fielded its candidate, Noor Alam Khan, from Jadavpur, where the Left Front has nominated Srijan Bhattacharya. The ISF has nominated Mozammel Haque for Balurghat, Mofiqul Islam for Uluberia, and lawyer Jamir Hossain for Barrackpore.
