On trying to print the value from config.ini i am getting value as None.

I have created a config.ini file

[Section] gfd_ip_address = 10.209.114.81 port = 80 application_no = 3 resourceSet_name = ['resourceset1','resourceset2','resourceset3'] server_name = cme.gfdlab1.com source_url = http://10.209.51.149/2MB;http://10.209.51.149/2MB

and i trying to access these values from config.py

import ConfigParser

def ConfigSectionMap(Section):

Config = ConfigParser.ConfigParser()
file = open("C:\D\python\config.ini", 'r')
content = file.read()

gfd_ip_address = ConfigSectionMap("gfd_ip_address") port = ConfigSectionMap("port") application_no = ConfigSectionMap("application_no")

print "The gfd_ip_address is {} , port is {} and application_no is {}" .format(gfd_ip_address,port,application_no)

output : The gfd_ip_address is None , port is None and application_no is None

can anyone please help me with this?
