The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has released its final list of candidates for the 13 seats for the West Bengal assembly elections on Tuesday. The BJP’s list for the upcoming eight-phase assembly elections in the state surprisingly does not include the name of Bollywood superstar Mithun Chakraborty, who recently joined the saffron party.

Mithun Chakraborty attended the BJP’s grand rally at Brigade Parade Ground in Kolkata on March 7, when he shared the dais with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and many other senior BJP leaders.
