This became evident when newly elected Phagwara Mayor Ram Pal Uppal, along with AAP leader Pawan Sharma Pappi and some supporters, visited the residence of former Union Home Minister Som Parkash in the presence of former Mayor Arun Khosla on Wednesday afternoon to seek his blessings.

After winning the mayoral election in Phagwara, now AAP leaders, including newly elected Mayor Ram Paul Uppal, cannot be seen in the MC as they have gone on religious tour these days. Uppal, he, nor the MC Commissioner was present in the office.

Uppal said he was waiting for the LS member and AAP in charge, Dr Raj Kumar Chabbewal, who was busy in Delhi elections. AAP halka in charge Joginder Singh Maan said that a new mayoral team would take charge after a religious congregation soon.
