FORMER opposition senator Jayanti Lutchmedial-Ramdial is unfazed by not being picked by the UNC as its candidate for the constituency of Naparima. She said her political priority remains to see a better TT, not to fight for a seat, and she is neither bitter nor upset.

The UNC announced Dr Narindra Roopnarine as its candidate for Naparima at a campaign meeting at Northeastern College, Sangre Grande on March 29.

Lutchmedial-Ramdial had been screened as a potential candidate. The party's decision not to select her raised eyebrows and it became a trending topic on social media, so too for former Mayaro MP Rushton Paray's non-selection.
