As a junior partner with the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) till 2020, the BJP was never given more than 23 constituencies (out of 117) and that too urban seats since 1995 when it also failed to have any tall Sikh leaders.
Even as the details on the seat-sharing arrangement are still awaited, BJP hopes to win over the Sikh community, disappointed with it over farm laws, by joining hands with Amarinder Singh.
