In a major setback to Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP), Sardar Jagir Singh, its Ex-president, Chandigarh unit today joined Congress at a function held at Congress Bhawan, Sector 35 here. As many as six prominent leaders from BSP were inducted to the Congress fold while Pawan Kumar Bansal, Congress Lok Sabha candidate addressed a large gathering in the presence of Pardeep Chhabra, Congress Chandigarh unit’s party president. While formally inducting the new entrants, Pawan Kumar Bansal, said that besides strengthening the Congress manifold, new joinings indicate the growing trust that people have in Congress when it comes to the real development of our city. “Instead of misleading the public, we have always promised to achieve realistic and doable goals. Sometimes public gets carried away by the ‘joomlas’ thrown by other parties but eventually they realise that for the long-term development, it is only Congress that can be trusted,” he said. After joining Congress, Sardar Jagir Singh said that he really respects Bansal, and his team comprises well-trained and experienced individuals who are all set to provide their unconditional support to Congress.  Among those who joined Congress today include names like Gurmukh Singh, ex-Gen secretary of the local unit, Arun Sharma, BSP secretary, Chandigarh, Jaswant Rai, Ex General secretary (BSP Office Bearer Chandigarh tent and catering association), Gogan Ram, ex-general secretary (Dadu Majra), Fur Khan, Mukhtiar Singh, Charanjit Singh, Sarup Singh Saini, Kewal Krishan, Ajmer Singh, Prem Singh, Gurdev Singh, Harjinder Singh and many more. While welcoming the new leaders, Pardeep Chhabra, Congress party president said, “We welcome the BSP leaders whole-heartedly into the Congress family. Our party is always there for people who believe in uniting people for the shared vision of development instead of dividing people on the basis of religion and caste.”
