Chandigarh: Various Sikhs Bodies in the Chandigarh Parliamentary Constituency have announced their support to the Janta Party Candidate Harmohan Dhawan, a progressive industrialist who is married in a leading Sikh family. Mr. Dhawan is contesting against the central Law Minister Mr. Jagan Nath Kaushal. Mr. Kaushal, it may be recalled was rewarded with a cabinet berth for his excellent performance as Mrs. Gandhi’s Attorney during the Janta rule. He is also largely responsible for retaining Chandigarh as a Union Territory. Mr. Yagya Dutt Sharma of Bhartiya Janta Party, is the third candidate. Mr. Sharma has not been able to cut much ice with the Union Territory Voters.
