LS polls: BJP's Chandigarh candidate pins hope on 'Modi wave', local roots for 'landslide' win
Modi wave" will help him score a «landslide» victory in the Chandigarh Lok Sabha election, feels BJP candidate Sanjay Tandon. Tandon took a dig at Congress candidate Manish Tewari, who fought the 2009 and 2019 Lok Sabha polls from Ludhiana and Anandpur Sahib in Punjab, saying, «Chandigarh needs a person who is one of them and who has been with them through thick and thin.» The BJP has been calling Tewari an «outsider» in Chandigarh while the Congress leader has hit back, saying he has local roots.
The 2024 Lok Sabha elections in Chandigarh will be held in a single phase on June 1. The votes will be counted on June 4.
Sixty-year-old Tandon, the son of former Chhattisgarh governor and one of the founding members of the Jan Sangh late Balramji Das Tandon, has replaced incumbent MP Kirron Kher while the Congress has named senior party leader Tewari (58), for the electoral fight in Chandigarh.
