With three days remaining before the final result, both BJP and Congress leaders are exuding confidence that their respective candidates will go to Parliament with Sunny Deol making his debut while Sunil Jakhar, a sitting MP, making it for the second time.
Both candidates evolved their campaigns in contrasting styles and on Thursday it will be as clear whose strategy was more effective.
The film star’s movement was controlled from the BJP headquarters in New Delhi. Among the local leaders, only Pathankot Mayor Anil Vasudeva, who coordinated tactics on the seats of Bhoa, Sujanpur and Pathankot, and former Punjab BJP president Kamal Sharma, who was made the overall incharge of the entire constituency, were privy to the plans.
