Labh Singh Ugoke, Aam Aadmi Party's candidate from Punjab's Bhadaur, sprung a big and surprising defeat to Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi. The 35-year-old AAP candidate, who belongs to a very poor family, has created history by defeating Channi by around 37,500 votes.

Labh Singh has studied till class 12th. He has done a plumber's course but he has been working at a mobile phone repairing shop. He joined AAP in 2013 and lives in a two-room house with his parents, wife, and two children. His father is a driver and mother is a sweeper.바카라 웹사이트

In a conversation with 바카라, Labh Singh said, "Channi was bound to lose from Bhadaur, but we never imagined that people of Bhadaur would give us such a big lead. People of Bhadaur have always done well.”바카라 웹사이트

Labh Singh added that he has got around 1,500 calls since winning the election but he could not pick up those calls. He further said that Punjabis from all over the world are giving their love to AAP and바카라 웹사이트news of his victory is floating around in languages that he does not even understand.바카라 웹사이트

Labh Singh said, "I am a volunteer of the party. I will stand바카라 웹사이트wherever Arvind ji and Bhagwant Man ji impose my duty. I will always be a common man as I am now. My image will always remain the same."

In the affidavit submitted to the Election Commission, Labh Singh mentioned a Hero Honda motorcycle as his asset.바카라 웹사이트

“I bought the motorcycle about eight years ago, while Channi's son has a car worth Rs 2 crore," said Labh Singh.바카라 웹사이트

This is in contrast to Channi바카라 웹사이트who has movable and immovable assets worth Rs 7.97 crore. His wife Kamaljeet Kaur also has movable and immovable assets worth Rs 4.19 crore. The two of them own four Fortuner vehicles. Moreover, Channi has residential accommodation worth more than Rs 4 crore, whereas his wife also has a residence of around Rs 2,27,85,000.

Labh Singh further claimed that he was offered money to retreat. He said, “I was offered Rs 5 crore to retreat. The audio is with me. But we are fighting a battle to change the system, so nothing can change 바카라 웹사이트my 바카라 웹사이트conscience. It is the fight of 'kullis' with the Palace-people. The belligerent people of 바카라 웹사이트Bhadaur defeated the capitalist Channi with a huge margin."


There is an interesting parallel between political careers of Channi and Labh Singh, who has now been hailed as a "giant killer" after defeating the chief minister. Just like Labh Singh, Channi had also emerged as a "giant killer" in 2007 when he defeated Bibi Satwant Kaur Sandhu from Chamkaur Sahib, who was a stalwart of the Shiromani Akali Dal.

The woes for the three-term legislator Channi are two-fold. He was also defeated in his home constituency of Chamkaur Sahib. AAP's candidate, an eye surgeon named Charanjit Singh, defeated Channi by a margin of almost 8,000 votes.바카라 웹사이트
