Cong withdraws 5 candidates in Nagaland due to fund shortage
The Congress has withdrawn five candidates from Nagaland elections due to severe shortage of fund. The party had released a list of 23 candidates for the 60-member assembly, but five candidates later withdrew their nominations, leaving 18 candidates from the party. "General secretary in-charge of northeast...seems to be least interested in the party's affairs," a party leader said.
