This is not because of Channi's greatness.He tried his best but Sidhu stood as a hindrance and his brother was not given a ticket.

[GOVERNMENTSHOULDPLANTTREEEE]

Desh ki sewa karne ki itni betabi sab ko😂
Sab minister ko 10000 salary do fir dekhte hai kaun politician banna cahata hai 😝

[takokinusa]

Good example..one of the best honest politian in India

[mohan]

Still I wonder why politician die to serve people, that salary is 25000 for MLA only, EVEN they will fight to get ticket serve people 🤔🤔🤔

[rmazim]

Bassi Pathana is Tehsil of a Historical District
Sirhind now renamed Fattehgarh Saheb .
The Punjabis want change in Punjab including Fattehgarh Saheb, Bassi Pathana and Amloh where Aam Admi Party (AAP ) is the favourite and has strong support of the people.
To my mind and hailing from Bassi in Bassi Pathana AAP ought to Win convincingly.

Why why, if you really want to do something you don't need to be politicians . You can serve as a normal person. 🤭

Nothing will stop congress victory.Good decision by congress.Channi a humble and honest CM.He should be given chance.He will prove to be not only the best CM but best politician in India.Such a wonderful person.

[rickysukhi]

I personally like Channi, but punjab congress looks messed up, the one big mess is Najot Sidhu Thoko taali himself.

[vamsikrishna]

One family one ticket aye!! How about apply this to the Gandhi family??

[akhilmohan]

Lucky that he didn't go to BJP...

[anuragsingh]

Rahul gandhi should have gave ticket to channi's brother otherwise it will be a plus point for AAP or bjp....And what if he joins any those two parties it will be a huge embarrassment for congress and channi himself

[diptik]

Jo 2-3 states hain Congress k pass wo b gyi 😂😂😂
They're a joke now....💁

[MrBobbysandhu]

Why he was taking granted, it’s better

[aronblanche]

These people would increase chance for BJP to win😂😂

[simplecomplicated]

How eager leaders are always to help public... yet public is always made fool by them....

[sm]

Don't worry sir. Punjab people will soon themselves ignore the Congress as a whole.

[shanthakumar]
