Otherwise, they would not have said such things. The MP came to Asansol a few days ago. He had not come here for the last 10 to 15 days. There is a puja at his house, so maybe he didn't come. Crazy people are putting up posters. But there are many more representatives, they are doing everything," Salim Ansari added.Read all the Latest News, Trending News, Cricket News, Bollywood News,India News and Entertainment News here.
