Suspended by the Congress in February 2023. Patiala MP Preneet Kaur joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Thursday ahead of the Lok Sabha elections. The Congress party had accused her of engaging in ‘anti-party’ activities. Ms Preneet is the wife of former Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh. After his removal as chief minister, Singh launched his party, the Punjab Lok Congress (PLC), in November 2021 and merged it with the BJP in September 2022.
In front of several prominent figures, including Sunil Jakhar, the head of the Punjab unit, and a former Congresswoman, Preneet Kaur, joined her new party.
Later, in a media interview following her induction into the BJP, she declared that, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi leading the country, she would keep working for her constituency, the state, and the nation. “I do not want to go into the past…I had a good innings with the Congress party. And I hope I will have a better innings with the BJP,” Kaur said. Jai Inder Kaur, the daughter of the couple, is also in the Bharatiya Janata Party. There are chances that Jai Inder Kaur will contest from Patiala.
