‘Rajewal didn’t get much time to prepare for electoral battle as SSM is new party’

SAMRALA (LUDHIANA): The mood among the voters in Samrala assembly constituency suggests that Sanyukt Samaj Morcha (SSM) president and party candidate Balbir Singh Rajewal has an uphill task in hand. Rajewal, who was one of the main faces of farmers’ agitation, is seeking election from Samrala segment even though his native village is in Khanna.

“Even though the people of my village are rooting for Rajewal, I think he did not get much time to prepare for this electoral battle as the SSM is a new party. I feel that the poll battle in Samrala is between AAP’s Jagtar Singh Dayalpura and SAD’s Paramjt Singh Dhillon. Reason being, that Congress MLA Amreek Singh Dhillon, who is now contesting as an independent candidate, didn’t do much for the constituency,” said Amrik Singh, who is a resident of Mushkabad village.
