A former RSS activist who is now the Union Defence Minister in Narendra Modi’s second stint as Prime Minister, Rajnath Singh, a popular in the BJP ranks and the party, is coming to Patiala on the last day of campaigning to infuse some live in the Capt Amarainder Singh’s , till day sluggish campaign.

Capt Amarinder Singh, former chief minister of Punjab and president Punjab Lok Congress is facing a tough competition, this time in his own constituency- Patiala urban.

He is facing the heat in so called Congress bastion Patiala (urban), nurtured by him and his wife Preneet kaur, who is congress member parliament from Patiala. A major roadblock in their campaign is lack of workers, supporters. Though they formed a party, but most of their workers stayed away in joining their newly formed party. One of their major lieutenant mayor Patiala sanjeev Sharma Bittu, who is one of their most active members, is busy in his own elections. He is contesting on PLC symbol from Patiala (rural).

Also local BJP local leadership is annoyed with their party high command and is not actively participating in the election campaign of Capt Amarinder Singh, their alliance partner, as the party high command gave Patiala (urban and rural) seats to capt’s Punjab Lok Congress and their (BJP) local leaders fail to get the party ticket.

“He himself fails to get a suitable support from his own constituency voters as he and his family has done nothing for the city except making this heritage city a tile city. His wife Preneet kaur, who revolted his parent party-Congress, is also not getting the required support, as most of their supporters, who are congress workers, didn’t opted to go with them, to support Punjab Lok Congress. Everyone knew the intention, fate of their newly formed party-PLC. Residents of Patiala know that Capt Amarinder Singh will resign from the MLA post, in coming days, if got elected, as BJP is going to reward him with some gubernatorial post for his act-establishing BJP in Punjab” said a political pundit.
