Jalandhar, May 7

Days after Jalandhar Lok Sabha Congress candidate and former Chief Minister Charanjit S Channi held rallies in the Phillaur Assembly segment, Karamjeet Chaudhary, mother of the suspended Congress MLA Vikramjit Singh Chaudhary, campaigned for the BJP in the same area.

Chaudhary, who had joined the BJP last month, attended rallies along with BJP candidate Sushil Rinku. She urged people to cast vote for him. Phillaur has been the turf of the Chaudhary family as prior to Vikramjit, his father and former Jalandhar MP Santokh Singh Chaudhary used to contest from this seat.

Karamjeet Chaudhary held meetings with workers and common people in Phillaur city, Rurka Kalan, Goraya and called upon everyone to vote in favour of the BJP. Chaudhary said the Congress and AAP were sinking ships. Their support base would be completely lost in the coming times. She said there was Modi wave in the country and the BJP would defeat its opponents.

Sushil Rinku said the Chaudhary family would play an important role in the victory of the BJP in the Jalandhar Lok Sabha elections. He said late Santokh Chaudhary had played an important role in the politics of Jalandhar and Punjab. Now, his family would make a valuable contribution in the historic victory of the BJP in the Jalandhar Lok Sabha constituency.

He said Congress candidate Channi was busy in making useless statements instead of contesting the elections.

Meanwhile, BJP candidate Sushil Rinku faced the farmers’ protest today as he was entering Phillaur. Farmers carrying flags even came outside one of his meeting venues.
