Jailed Sikh preacher Amritpal Singh's entry into the Khadoor Sahib Lok Sabha seat as an Independent candidate, campaigning on a pro-Panth, anti-drug platform, has stirred politics in the region bordering Pakistan. Supporters have placed posters of Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale, highlighting the seat's Panthic sentiment. Amritpal's manifesto focuses on ending the drug culture, releasing prisoners, and ensuring justice in sacrilege cases. While his work against addiction is praised, there are concerns about his pro-Khalistani stance leading to separatism. The contest also includes candidates from SAD (Amritsar), Congress, and BJP, making it a crucial four-cornered contest.
