Gidderbaha bypoll: Former MP Jagmeet Brar withdraws nomination
Former MP Jagmeet Singh Brar on Wednesday withdrew his nomination from Gidderbaha bypoll.
He had filed his nomination as an independent candidate on Friday.
Talking to The Tribune, Jagmeet said, “I have consulted my 21-member advisory committee and decided to withdraw the nomination. However, neither have I announced to support any candidate, nor I am joining the Congress.”
He further criticised PCC chief Amrinder Singh Raja Warring, whose wife Amrita is contesting the bypoll as a Congress nominee. “I demand a probe and action against Raja Warring, who is facing controversies and being accused of a transport scam,” said Jagmeet.
