Naveen Jindal gets ticket hours after quitting Congress
BJP on Sunday decided to field Naveen Jindal, who heads steel and power giant JSPL, from Kurukshetra, hours after he switched over to the saffron party. Jindal — an accused in the coal scam, which was a key election issue for BJP in 2014 — was twice elected to Lok Sabha from Kurukshetra. In 2014, he had finished third when BJP’s Raj Kumar Saini won, and was not fielded by Congress in the 2019 polls.
