After chief minister Mamata Banerjee's defeat in Nandigram, Sovandeb Chattopadhyay, Cabinet minister and TMC MLA from Bhabanipur, vacated the seat to facilitate her return to the assembly from there.
Banerjee is pitted against BJP's Priyanka Tibrewal and Left Front's Srijib Biswas in the September 30 by-poll. Congress has decided not to field a candidate against her. The votes will be counted on October 3.
While, preparation of Former AIUDF MLA from Bhabanipur constituency, Phani Talukdar, is in full swing for the upcoming by-poll.
After joining the BJP, Talukdar first visited the Bhabanipur Satra to seek blessings from the almighty.
