BJP candidate Manas Kumar Dutta, son of former Balasore Sadar MLA late Madan Mohan Dutta, had filed his nomination on Wednesday.

The bypoll to the Assembly seat was necessitated as it had fallen vacant following the death of Madan Mohan Dutta in June.

The election is scheduled to be held on November 3.
