Poll bid for Bollywood star Dutt
 |   |
Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt, sentenced to jail for buying weapons from bombers who attacked Mumbai in 1993, may stand in India's election, due before May.
The actor, who is out on bail, has been offered a ticket by the Samajwadi Party in Uttar Pradesh to contest a seat in the lower house of parliament.
The Samajwadi Party is a key ally of the ruling Congress party.
Samajwadi said that Mr Dutt would compete for the seat of former PM Atal Behari Vajpayee, who is stepping down.
The party insists that Mr Dutt - one of Bollywood's most bankable stars - will only be allowed to stand if he is given "legal clearance" to do so following his conviction and jail sentence in 2007.
