Chandigarh: Former Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh may contest as a BJP candidate in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, according to reports. The Times of India reported that Yuvraj would contest the Lok Sabha constituency from Gurdaspur on a BJP ticket. It is suggested that Yuvraj Singh’s recent meeting with Union Minister Nitin Gadkari is a precursor to this.
Actor Sunny Deol is currently the BJP MP from Gurdaspur. But public sentiment is strong against Sunny Deol who did not make it to the constituency. That is why the BJP is said to be getting ready to try a new face. Bollywood actor Vinod Khanna has also represented Gurujaspur in Parliament before.
