In a unique twist for the 2024 Lok Sabha Election in West Bengal's Bishnupur constituency, Sujata Mondal Khan, now with Trinamool Congress (TMC), faces off against her ex-husband, Saumitra Khan, representing BJP. The couple divorced in 2020 after Sujata joined TMC, prompting Saumitra to sever ties. He urged her to drop the 'Khan' surname. Saumitra, the current MP, expressed surprise at Sujata's candidacy, wishing for a more seasoned politician. This sets the stage for a compelling electoral battle, as the former partners clash in a political showdown.
