The Morning Standard
|April 23, 2024
FORMER Punjab Congress chief Mohinder Singh Kaypee on Monday ditched the party and entered the Lok Sabha fray from Jalandhar on SAD ticket, taking the number of turncoats in the NRI heartland to three.

BJP nominee Sushil Kumar Rinku (former AAP leader) and AAP's Pawan Kumar Tinu (ex-SAD leader) are the two other defectors. In addition to them, in the fray is an outsider - Congress candidate (former CM Charanjit Singh Channi who earlier contested from Chamkaur Sahib Assembly constituency and shifted to Jalandhar Lok Sabha seat.
Kaypee, a devout follower of the Radha Soami Dera at Beas, had recently met SAD chief Sukhbir Singh Badal. He had gone to Delhi a few days back to meet the Congress leadership staking claim on the party ticket from Hoshiarpur, where he had contested in 2014 but was defeated by BJP's Vijay Sampla.
