Ashwani Kumar Sharma - Pathankot পঞ্জাব বিধানসভা আসন 2022

Ashwani Kumar Sharma

BJP | Pathankot Won

Ashwani Kumar Sharma is the current president of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Punjab. He won from the Pathankot constituency in the 2012 Assembly elections. In the 2017 Punjab Assembly elections, Sharma was defeated by Congress candidate Amit Vij with a margin of 11,170 votes (10.08% of total valid votes). He contributed significantly to the formation of the SAD-BJP alliance, which was able to repeat the coalition government in Punjab and also became a member of the Legislative Assembly in 2012. Sharma is again trying his luck from the same constituency against Amit Vij and BSP's Advocate Jyoti Pal Bhim (supported by Shiromani Akali Dal).
