Tribune News Service

Chandigarh, April 21

City BJP president Sanjay Tandon and MP Kirron Kher, who are contenders for the party ticket from Chandigarh, appeared together at a church for Easter prayer in Sector 18 here today.

They are rarely seen together in events. However, with the party likely to announce the ticket anytime, the leaders have started appearing more on common platforms. Last time, when Kher did not appear for a “rath yatra” flagged off by Capt Abhimanyu, in-charge of the Chandigarh BJP, infighting within the party had started doing rounds.

Meetings held in Sec 38, Palsora village

Meanwhile, under the ongoing campaign, ‘Chai Pe Charcha’, meetings were held in Sector 38 and Palsora village. Addressing the people at the meeting, Tandon said when the Chandigarh BJP came to know about the ongoing struggle of the UT Employees Association for its housing project, party representatives met Administration officials to resolve the issue. He also described all developmental projects undertaken by the BJP government in the past five years. He said the government had started several programmes for every strata of society.
