Gardiwala, January 26, 2017: Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) suffered a big jolt here today when the former Nagar Council president and sitting councillor Chaudhary Paramjit Kaur left the party and joined AAP along with over 100 supporter families in the area. Paramjit Kaur belongs to a politically influential family of Gardiwal. She and her family had been allegedly meted out a raw treatment by SAD-BJP government due to which she decided to join AAP.
But the ruling combine was not alone to suffer in the area. Congress lost former councillor Bhupinder Singh and Mahila Mandal chief Naseeb Kaur to AAP. Both joined the new party along with their supporters.
