This may cause discord in those assembly constituencies in which BJP candidates have lost in the 2022 assembly elections. These leaders are beginning to worry about what will happen to their future if rebels and independents are made assembly candidates. Now the Congress party is keeping a close eye on these BJP leaders. Consultations are going on to include these leaders in Congress. Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu has also said this in gestures. This is the reason behind not declaring the candidate in the Lok Sabha elections also.
