Congress supporters in Murshidabad’s Suti Assembly segment hit the streets on Monday to protest against renomination of sitting MLA Humayun Reza.
The Congress had released the third list of candidates for the Assembly polls, which it would contest as part of the Sanyukt Morcha, on Sunday.
About 500 Congress workers took out a rally in Suti’s Aurangabad market area under the leadership of the party’s vice-president for Suti Block 2 committee Abdul Khalek. Members of nine area committees in the block participated in the rally.
The dissidents were carrying placards against Reza’s nomination and announced they would not campaign for him.
