“I have always been follower of the policies of Chaudhary Devi Lal. In the current scenario, Ajay Chautala and his son Dushyant Chautala are following his principles in true sense which has inspired me to join the JJP,” mentioned the press release quoting Balkaur Singh, a former member of Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC).
