Sukhpal Khaira on Saturday announced that he would contest the general election from Bathinda constituency. He will be the joint candidate of the six-party group, Punjab Democratic Alliance.
He said they would continue their struggle in Bathinda, adding that in case Harsimrat Badal changed the constituency to Ferozepur, Simarjeet Bains of the Lok Insaaf Party could contest against Harsimrat.
He appealed to SAD Taksali leader Ranjit Singh Brahampura to withdraw their candidate JJ Singh from Khadoor Sahib to support Paramjit Kaur Khalra. They were ready to compensate them with another seat, he added.
