Chandigarh, April 10, 2024 (Yes Punjab News)
Bharatiya Janata Partry Wednesday named Sanjay Tandon as its candidate from Chandigarh Parliamentary constituency dropping sitting MP and Bollywood actress Kirron Kher.
Sanjay Tandon remained the President of Chandigarh State Unit of Bharatiya Janata Party for 10 years and is the son of a former Punjab Minister late Balramji Dass Tandon.
Kirron Kher remained Lok Sabha Member from Chandigarh twice. She won the elections in 2014 and 2019.
Tandon’s name appeared in the 10th list of candidates released today.
The party was under pressure to name a local candidate from Chandigarh as Kirron Kher was time and again targetted for being an ‘outsider’.
