In a jolt to Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, his cousin Gyan Singh joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), ahead of next year’s assembly elections in the state. The announcement was made by BJP’s Punjab unit on its X – formerly Twitter – page.
Taking to X, the BJP said that their party is growing stronger day by day in Punjab. “The current ruling @AAPPunjab party and Chief Minister @BhagwantMann received a major political jolt when their cousin brother Gyan Singh Mann joined the Bharatiya Janata Party today.”
“The party’s state president, Sunil Jakhar, welcomed him into the BJP family and said that due to the BJP’s people-friendly policies and vision for development, people are joining the party in large numbers. The fact that trust is breaking even from within the Aam Aadmi Party’s own house shows that the people of Punjab have now grown weary of false promises and theatrical politics,” the party said.
