Chandigarh, Nov 9: In a notable political shift ahead of the Chandigarh Municipal Corporation elections, District Court Bar Association President and Congress General Secretary Amarjit Singh Gujral officially joined the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) today alongside his wife, former councillor Ravinder Kaur Gujral.
The couple inducted into the party in the presence of SAD President Sukhbir Singh Badal and local party leadership. Gujral, who also served on the Congress campaign committee for the upcoming civic body polls, indicated his readiness to contest the upcoming municipal elections under the SAD banner if fielded by party leadership. His wife previously represented Ward No. 23 as a Congress councillor following the 2016 local body elections.
SAD Chandigarh unit president Charanjit Singh Willy welcomed the move, maintaining that the induction strengthens the party’s footprint in the Union Territory ahead of the poll cycle. Former mayor and SGPC executive member Harjinder Kaur was also present during the event, citing her long-standing association with Ward No. 23 and expressing confidence in the party’s municipal outlook.
