Background information of Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury:
A thriving contractor who brooked no rivals, Chowdhury was initially linked with Left politics. He fell out with them and got a Congress ticket to fight the 1996 assembly election from Nabagram, an assembly segment under his present LS constituency. He won by a landslide margin without making a single appearance—he had to contest in absentia since he was on the run from the police. In 1999, he won the Berhampore Parliament seat. In between, he routed the Left parties in the Berhampore municipal election, winning the civic body by a margin of 23-0. Apart from helping people, he has changed the face of Behrampore for the better. At the civic body, every official is in his seat when the office opens and the work culture is remarkable. Chowdhury’s aggressive record as a contractor is the only chink in his armour. He and his associates have numerous criminal cases against them, including murders.
