Currently, the much-talked-about Jalandhar West Vidhan Sabha seat of Punjab is under discussion, Sheetal Angural, who is the leader who is holding the by-election here, is not contesting the re-election.

It is reported that Angural's brother Rajan Angural had also designed the posters of his brother and posted them on social media, but the senior leadership of BJP stopped him from doing so.

Sushil Rinku's wife Sunita Rinku's name is leading from BJP's Jalandhar West Vidhan Sabha seat. At the same time, the BJP is wary that Sheetal Angural is on the radar of the Commissionerate Police and a case can be registered against her at any time.
