State Congress president and MP Adhir Ranjan Choudhury on Friday spoke on the integrity of Congress candidates in fray in the ongoing Assembly elections, a move that hints at underlying fears of horse-trading and defection after poll results among some political forces.
Choudhury, who was in North Dinajpur one of the erstwhile strongholds of the Congress to campaign for his party’s candidates, said they had fielded candidates who could not be “purchased”.
