CAMPAIGN TRAIL:Lakha Sidhana, booked for Red Fort violence is a contestant in this Punjab Assembly Elections

The Hindu  

Delhi Police had booked gangster turned activist Lakhwinder Singh, better known as Lakha Sidhana, after violence broke out at Red Fort during a tractor parade organised by farmer unions on Republic Day last year. A year later, on bail, he is busy holding babies, touching the feet of the elderly and, posing for selfies as he goes door to door campaigning for votes as a candidate of farm leader Balbir Singh Rajewal’s Samyukt Samaj Morcha in the Punjab Assembly Elections. Mr. Khosa also talks about his own attempts to find employment abroad touching upon two enduring themes of Punjab elections - drug abuse and unemployment. “My fight is for your future generations,” Mr. Sidhana says, dismissing the usual infrastructure development works such as road and sewerage as routine work that are given as part of an elected representative’s duty.
