Let us tell you that when there were assembly elections in Odisha, Congress had made Sucharita Mohanty the candidate from Puri, but she returned the ticket saying that Congress was not providing any help for the campaign. Sucharita Mohanty had said that Congress is not providing funds for campaigning and she does not have money for campaigning. Sucharita Mohanty had also alleged that tickets were given to weak candidates instead of the winners on many seats. After Sucharita Mohanty, now Sachin Sawant in Maharashtra has decided not to contest the assembly elections by raising the issue of change of seat. However, he expressed no displeasure and also said that his aim was to defeat the ruling Mahayuti.
