Muktsar, January 8

Aam Aadmi Party's state convener Sucha Singh Chhotepur claimed that a senior SAD leader and three-time SGPC member, Gurpal Singh ‘Gora’, from Fakkarsar village in the Gidderbaha Assembly segment joined the party in a meeting held in the latter's village today.

However, Gora denied of joining AAP. "Chhotepur had come to our village to hold a meeting this evening, where I had also gone. But I have not yet joined AAP," he added.

Asked whether he had any plans to join AAP, Gora said, "We may think about the future course of action. I have tendered my resignation from the SGPC membership in protest against the sacrilege incidents."

On the other hand, Chhotepur posted a picture on his Facebook page in which Gora is seen wearing a AAP muffler.

Supporting his claim, Chhotepur said, "Gora is wearing a muffler of AAP in the picture. If he has not joined AAP then why is he wearing it?"
