I spoke to Raminder Awla on Monday and told him that a shopkeeper here had suffered huge loss in a fire incident. He sent his son to provide financial help to him. — Rajesh Pathela Gora, Muktsar BJP Leader

There are talks in the political circles for the past few days that Raminder Awla may join the BJP and is also in the race for the saffron party’s ticket from Ferozepur. However, as of now, he has neither left the Congress, nor joined the BJP.

Rajesh Pathela Gora, ex-president of the BJP, Muktsar district, said, “I spoke to Raminder yesterday and told him that a shopkeeper here had suffered huge loss in a fire incident. He sent his son to provide financial help.”

Former ministers Surjit Jyani and Rana Gurmit Singh Sodhi are ticket aspirants from Ferozepur.

Muktsar is a part of the Ferozepur constituency. AAP and SAD have announced their candidates, but the BJP and Congress are yet to declare their names.
