CM Punjab wife Preneet Kaur wins Patiala, defeats Dr Dharamvir Gandhi

 -  -  149


Socialist activist Dr Dharamvir Gandhi of the Navan Punjab Party was defeated by the Maharani of Patiala Preneet Kaur for the Patiala seat.

Clearly, the parliamentary contribution of Dr Dharamvir Gandhi was not taken into account by the electorate in making their choice. Dr Gandhi not only raised Punjab issues but also was a people’s man in the last five years despite he quitting the Aam Aadmi Party on ideological grounds.
