Welcoming them into the party fold, the chief minister said that the joining of the AAP leaders and workers would further strengthen the Congress and ensure a landslide victory for PPCC president and party nominee, Sunil Jakhar.
While Kulbushan, an advocate, had contested the 2017 assembly polls on AAP ticket from Sujanpur, Lakhvir was the party’s co-ordinator for the Gurdaspur Lok Sabha polls.
