Former RSS leader Rajesh Khurana, close aide of two-time former MLA Sukhpal Singh Nannu, today left the BJP and joined the Congress in the presence of Cabinet Minister Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa and MLA Parminder Singh Pinki.

His wife Sakshi Khurana, municipal councillor from Ward No 22, and their supporters also joined the Congress.

Nannu had been booked in a kidnapping case two months ago, following which most of his BJP supporters had joined the Congress. Khurana alleged that senior BJP leaders instead of supporting had been harassing him due to which he left the saffron party. Khurana lauded the efforts of Pinki for spearheading development in the town.
