After Sangrur debacle, AAP re-enters Lok Sabha from Punjab with Jalandhar win

Chandigarh, May 13

The Aam Aadmi Party on Saturday regained its representation in the Lok Sabha, with party candidate Sushil Kumar Rinku getting an impressive win.

It has been a major setback for the Congress, with which the seat remained since 1999. It had fielded Santokh Chaudhary’s widow Karamjit Kaur as the candidate.

In June 2022, AAP had witnessed a major setback when SAD (Amritsar)’s Simranjit Singh Mann won the Sangrur Lok Sabha seat after defeating his nearest rival, AAP’s Gurmail Singh, by a slender margin.

The Sangrur constituency was once a stronghold of AAP. Bhagwant Mann had represented this seat twice — in 2014 and 2019.
