Kavita: Voters upset over ticket to Deol

New Delhi, April 27 

With tears in her eyes on the second death anniversary of actor and four-time MP from Gurdaspur Vinod Khanna, his wife Kavita Vinod Khanna said the party (BJP) had let her down.

She said the people of Gurdaspur were upset with the BJP’s decision to field actor Sunny Deol from Gurdaspur in the Lok Sabha poll.

“There is no denying that I was extremely hurt and upset with the decision. It is the second time that the party is letting me down. The first time, days after my husband’s passing away, I was told to support Swaran Salaria, a candidate who caused the party a huge loss in the byelection last year. This time as well, I only got to know of the party’s decision from the media,” she said.

She was under pressure to file nomination as an Independent, but after days of thought, she decided against it. Instead, she will continue to serve the nation by fully supporting Narendra Modi whom she believes is the only leader who could lead the nation. — TNS
