S Ganesan Is BN’s Candidate For Bukit Selambau

Deputy Kedah MIC chief and former Lunas assemblyman Datuk S. Ganesan has been named the Barisan Nasional (BN) candidate for the Bukit Selambau state by-election.

Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak announced Ganesan's candidacy here.

The Bukit Selambau seat fell vacant following the resignation of incumbent assemblyman V. Arumugam of Parti Keadilan Rakyat last month.

The nomination day is on March 29 and polling is on April 7.

The by-election will be held simultaneously with the Bukit Gantang parliamentary by-election in Perak and Batang Ai state by-election in Sarawak. (Bernama)
