OUTGOING Couva South MP Rudranath Indarsingh has accepted his fate after being replaced as the UNC's prospective candidate for the constituency, and put his full support behind the party.

In a statement on April 1, Indarsingh thanked his constituents and the party. His statement comes a day after UNC political leader Kamla Persad-Bissessar revealed Barry Padarath was selected as the party's prospective candidate for the April 28 general election.

“I am grateful to my constituents of Couva South who have become my mothers, my fathers, my brothers, my sisters and my friends. Our time together has been full of laughter, tears, struggle and victories. For every invitation into your homes, every birthday, death, celebration and trial that we have been through together, the space that you hold in my heart is larger than any office.
