Basdeo Panday, who has lost the chance to be a candidate for the Couva North constituency he represented for 34 years, still has political aspirations.
He said yesterday he was considering running as an independent candidate.
And the only person he would run against would be Jack Warner.
Panday, 76, also, believes the United National Congress (UNC), under leadership of Kamla Persad Bissessar, has a good chance of winning government.
Panday’s failure to submit nomination papers by Monday’s deadline means his career as an elected politician is all but over.
But he said yesterday, ’I am planning to fight Jack Warner as an independent in any seat that he intends to contest.
