Ludhiana: With barely a month to go for the Lok Sabha elections, turncoats are having a box day. Small time leaders and workers are transferring from one party to every other virtually on a daily basis. But alongside, there are several prominent names whose exit from their outdated events and switching of loyalties is creating ripples within the political circles. Both Congress and Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) have managed to attract faces from Lok Insaaf Party (LIP) and Aam Admi Party (AAP) in the previous couple of days, even though the ruling party turns out to have an edge, as reasonably a couple of local heavyweights have joined it previously few days. As the ballot campaign choices up, there turns out no let-up, and it has created extra uncertainty inside LIP and AAP, who have misplaced several of their poster boys to the mainstream events.
Former SAD MLA Prem Mittal, who had joined LIP someday back, and had been a strong critic of Congress, sprang a wonder via joining Congress on April 1. Mittal’s son Jai Kishan Mittal too had ultimate yr contested councillor elections from Ward 44. Mittals have a stronghold over Atam Nagar and surrounding areas, and their access into Congress is ready to reinforce the party’s potentialities within the area, which historically has been a stronghold of Bains brothers.
Another known title who has joined Congress lately is that of Daljit Grewal Bhola, who was once in AAP and had contested MLA elections from Ludhiana East towards Congress MLA Sanjay Talwar in 2017. Prior to that, Grewal was once in SAD and had remained a councillor. He has a vital influence within the East constituency.
The third prominent face to have switched facets is Vipan Sood Kaka, who has been a close aide of Bains brothers. Unlike Mittal and Bhola, who switched facets to the ruling party, former LIP leader Kaka has joined SAD and his joining was once the controversy of the town, since SAD bigwigs — together with Sukhbir Badal and Bikram Majithia — had specially come down to Ludhiana for his joining.
Besides them, Gurpreet Khurana from Ludhiana Central, and Happy Kocchar from Atam Nagar — the two skilled politicians — after quitting LIP, joined Congress lately. Another known determine to have joined Congress is Darshan Singh Shankar, who was once the spokesperson of AAP. He was once followed via AAP’s Ludhiana youth wing president Amrinder Singh Jassowal, who too joined Congress.
Responding to the traits, District Congress Committee president Ashwani Mittal stated: “This is reasonably usual in Indian politics. But it's not commonplace that leaders sign up for ruling events just since the party is in power. More and extra persons are joining our party because of the nice paintings done via our party ever because it came to power in Punjab, and via our MP Ravneet Singh Bittu. Due to these types of components, Congress has become the first choice today for everybody.”
