Two Punjab AAP MLAs Resign Ahead of 2027 Assembly Elections, Expected to Join BJPPreviousNext

Two Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLAs from Punjab, Harmeet Singh Pathanmajra (Sanaur) and Chetan Singh Jouramajra (Samana), resigned from the party following their exclusion from AAP's first candidate list for the 2027 Assembly elections. Both cited dissatisfaction with party leadership and governance, particularly on issues like drug control and corruption. They are expected to join the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which welcomed their induction. The resignations highlight internal dissent within AAP ahead of the polls.
