SAHOORA (ATTARI): With the Congress announcing a scheduled caste (SC) CM face for the Punjab elections, farmer leaders in Attari feel their Dalit vote bank might be slipping to the ruling party.
Leaders of Sanyukt Samaj Morcha (SSM) are already struggling to keep up their election campaign. Farm leader Rattan Singh Randhawa is of the view that over 60% SC voters have shifted to Congress after the announcement of Channi's name as Congress party's CM face. "In a couple of days only, we have observed a visible change. We are of the view that 60% SC votes have gone to Congress and remaining 40% will be divided between Akalis and AAP, and a very small share will come to SSM," he said.
