Lok Sabha Election: Congress is increasing its own problems, two contenders left the party, know the reason

This time there are many challenges for the Congress, which was number one in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections in Punjab with eight seats. In six of the 13 Lok Sabha seats of Punjab, there is huge resentment among the contenders due to not getting tickets and this has increased internal factionalism. At the same time, angry leaders on two seats have said goodbye to the party, while Dr. Rajkumar Chabbewal, who was the deputy leader of Congress in the Punjab Assembly, said goodbye to the party and joined AAP.

After this, AAP fielded Chabbewal against Congress from the Hoshiarpur seat. In such a situation, Congress's game may get spoiled in this election due to its people. However, Leader of Opposition Pratap Singh Bajwa has now himself come forward and visited these seats and started damage control. How successful this effort will be will be clear only after the counting of votes on June 4, but at present, the party's high command is also worried due to the increasing internal infighting in the Congress in Punjab. This is the reason why Rahul Gandhi himself is trying to pacify the angry leaders by making calls. Talking about Patiala, former MP Dr. There is a lot of resentment among the stereotypical Congressmen over Dharamveer Gandhi joining the Congress and giving him the ticket. These include former MLAs and current local in-charges of Rajpura, Ghannour, and Samana, apart from former cabinet minister Lal Singh and former MLA Nirmal Singh Shutrana.

Till now these Congressmen have not come forward openly in support of Dr. Gandhi. After Congress MP in Ludhiana Ravneet Singh Bittu fielded from BJP ticket, chances of Bharat Bhushan Ashu getting the ticket were gaining momentum, but the party made Punjab Congress chief Amarinder Singh Raja Wading its candidate, due to which Ashu is said to be angry. Are going. On top of that, Bittu also has a lot of influence in Ludhiana. In such a situation, this factor can also create problems for Congress.

Sony camp angry in Amritsar

In Amritsar, former Deputy CM OP Soni was also considered a contender for the ticket, but Congress considered it appropriate to again bet on sitting MP Gurjit Singh Aujla. The Sony camp is said to be angry with this. Former MLA from Dhuri in Sangrur, Dalveer Singh Goldy, has also joined AAP after being upset over not getting the ticket. Along with Goldie, a large number of his workers have broken away from Congress. This may deal a blow to the election campaign of Congress candidate Sukhpal Singh Khaira. Anyway, Khaira is from outside. His light is subtle. Due to not getting a ticket in Jalandhar, former MP Chaudhary Santokh Singh's wife Karmjeet Kaur Chaudhary has joined the BJP.
