West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari on Tuesday said TMC's Falta candidate Jahangir Khan "ran away" from the May 21 re-election as he would not get any polling agents.
Campaigning in Falta in South 24 Parganas district ahead of the May 21 re-election, Adhikari claimed that Khan had no option but to withdraw from the contest.
"He had no other way, as he won't get a polling agent, so he decided to run away," the CM told reporters.
Re-election was ordered in the Falta assembly segment following allegations of large-scale electoral malpractices.
A video purportedly showing Khan announcing his decision to withdraw from the race has gone viral on social media.
PTI, however, couldn't independently verify the authenticity of the video.
TMC spokesperson Arup Chakraborty said the party has received information about Khan's decision, but is yet to get clarity on what prompted it.
