Trinamool Congress has released its list of candidates for the 144-ward Kolkata Municipal Corporation election scheduled on December 19. As many as 39 sitting ward councillors out of the total 126 ward coordinators (councillors) who won last time, were dropped.

Trinamool came out with the list after a three-hour-long session at chief minister Mamata Banerjee’s house on Friday, where political strategist Prashant Kishor and Trinamool Congress general secretary Abhishek Banerjee were present. Of the 144 Trinamool candidates, 64 are women, 19 from scheduled caste and 23 from minority communities including two Christians.

Chief minister Mamata Banerjee’s sister-in-law Kajori Banerjee is contesting as councillor, and so are senior state minister Chandrima Bhattacharya’s son and late Subrata Mukherjee’s sister. Six sitting MLAs, including chairman of the board of administrators of KMC, Firhad Hakim, have been fielded as candidates. Party MP Mala Roy, MLAs Atin Ghosh, Debashis Kumar, Debabrata Majumder, Paresh Pal and Ratna Chatterjee will also contest the elections.
