About Khadoor Sahib
The contestants for the Lok Sabha seat in Khadoor Sahib include Manjit Singh Manna for Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Laljit Singh Bhullar for Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), Virsa Singh Valtoha for Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD), and Kulbir Singh Zira for Congress.
However, aside from the major parties, another candidate to throw a spanner in the works is the jailed radical sikh preacher and Waris Punjab De Chief, Amritpal Singh. Amritpal, who was incarcerated in Assam’s Dibrugarh Jail under National Security Act (NSA), will be contesting the elections independently. However, Amritpal is poised to put up a challenge for the major parties as Sri Khadoor Sahib is predominantly a Panthak seat. Experts say that it is likely to be a tight contest for first between Amritpal and AAP’s Laljit Singh Bhullar.
