No uncertainty over Aruvikkara candidature, says Chandy

New Delhi: Chief Minister Oommen Chandy on Friday said that there was no uncertainty within the Congress or in the UDF over the party nominee for the upcoming Aruvikkara bypoll.

The Congress will finalise the UDF candidate for the election in a meeting to be held Friday evening, Chandy said here.
