Former Indian Ambassador to the United States, Taranjit Singh Sandhu, joined the BJP on March 19, and is likely to contest on the party ticket from Amritsar, where he has been reaching out to people since he retired from the foreign service a few months ago.
Mr. Sandhi joined the BJP in the presence of BJP’s national general secretaries Vinod Tawde and Tarun Chugh (in charge of party affairs in Punjab).
