HT Explains | A three-way fight in Punjab

Updated on Jan 12, 2017 05:18 pm IST

Punjab will vote on February 4 in all its 117 assembly constituencies and the fight to form the government has long begun. For the Shiromani Akali Dal-BJP alliance, which is in power for a second consecutive term now, 10 years of anti-incumbency will play a major role. The Congress is trying hard to make a comeback. And this time the AAP is also in the race after making an impressive entry into Punjab politics in the 2014.
