West Bengal CM and Trinamool Congress (TMC) supremo Mamata Banerjee said on Monday that the party decided to not contest the ongoing UP Assembly elections in "larger interest". TMC didn't field any candidates in UP because I didn't want to hamper Akhilesh Yadav-led Samajwadi Party's chances, Banerjee added. TMC has extended its support to Samajwadi Party for UP elections.
