Mohali’s three assembly seats all set for voting today
Hindustan TimesThe stage is set for polling in Mohali district’s three assembly constituencies, where 7.94 lakh voters will decide the fate of 40 candidates on Sunday. With the Bharatiya Janata Party and Sanyukt Samaj Morcha jumping into the electoral battle, all three seats – Mohali, Kharar and Dera Bassi – will witness a tough, multi-cornered contest. Three-time Congress MLA Balbir Singh Sidhu is hoping for a fourth term from Mohali, while two-time Shiromani Akali Dal MLA NK Sharma is also aiming for a hat-trick from Dera Bassi. In Dera Bassi, another realtor Sanjeev Khanna is the BJP nominee, who, apart from the sitting MLA, is up against Congress’ Deepinder Singh Dhillon, AAP’s Kuljeet Singh Randhawa, BJP’s Sanjeev Khanna and SSM’s Avtar Singh Jawaharpur.
