Capt Amarinder Singh, a senior BJP leader and former chief minister of Punjab, has made a fervent appeal to Ludhiana West voters to back what he describes as a 'serious party' in the upcoming by-election. Accusing the ruling AAP of three years of inadequate governance, Singh insists that change is imperative for Punjab's future.

The Ludhiana West assembly bypoll, set for June 19, follows the vacancy created by the demise of AAP MLA Gurpreet Bassi Gogi. Singh criticizes the AAP tenure, alleging a pattern of misinformation and unfulfilled promises.

BJP has fielded Jiwan Gupta as their candidate, aiming to capture the seat amid competition from AAP's Sanjeev Arora and Congress's Bharat Bhushan Ashu. The Shiromani Akali Dal has pitched Parupkar Singh Ghuman for the contest, ensuring a keenly fought election.
