State BJP chief Kewal Singh Dhillon inducted him into the party fold at an event attended by the party’s district president Ashok Sareen Hickey, general secretary Anil Sarin, former MLAs KD Bhandari and Sheetal Angural.

Dhall, who unsuccessfully contested the 2022 assembly elections from Jalandhar North on an AAP ticket, was removed from the post of halqa in-charge after the party appointed mayor Vaneet Dhir as a new constituency in-charge. Dhall was reportedly unhappy with the AAP leadership since the change.
