Trinamool Congress to be ready to handle candidates in all the three Lok Sabha
seats in Murshidabad district, sources said.

Jangipur and Murshidabad - are under the Trinamool Congress.

assembly election, the 2009 Lok Sabha election, and the 2011 get together
polls, leading to the ousting of the CPI(M)- led Left Front government of 34
years.
