Jalandhar : Punjab Lok Sabha Elections 2024: Bharatiya Janata Party will contest alone on 13 seats of Punjab. Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) state president Sunil Jakhar gave this information on social media. There was speculation about the alliance of Shiromani Akali Dal and BJP in Punjab, but Sunil Jakhar has put an end to them. In a video released on X, Jakhar said that BJP will contest the Lok Sabha elections alone in Punjab. He said that the party has taken this decision keeping in mind the opinion of the people, opinion of party workers, opinion of leaders, future of Punjab, youth, pariahs, youth and backward classes. With this, the ongoing speculations regarding Akali Dal-BJP alliance have also come to an end.
Punjab BJP President Sunil Jakhar said that what BJP has done under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi, no other party has done it. He said that farmers got every penny of MSP in their accounts within a week. The party has taken this decision keeping in mind the bright future of Punjab, the security of Punjab and the strength of its borders.
Congress was waiting for an alliance
It was believed that Union Home Minister Amit Shah was in talks with Akali Dal regarding alliance. But the core committee of Akali Dal spoiled the entire mathematics by keeping principles above politics. On the other hand, Congress was also waiting for the alliance of BJP-Shramoni Akali Dal. Congress's strategy was to present itself as a strong opponent. Congress believes that if there was an Akali-BJP alliance, the alliance would have faced defeat. Now the picture regarding the alliance has become clear. In such a situation, now Congress will compete with Aam Aadmi Party.
