BJP sends Tarun Chugh to Rajya Sabha, fuels speculation over Bittu’s Punjab role | Chandigarh News

The BJP nominated Punjab leader Tarun Chugh to the Rajya Sabha from Madhya Pradesh, fueling speculation about the future political role of Union Minister Ravneet Singh Bittu. Bittu's name was not included in the first list of candidates for the June 18 Rajya Sabha elections despite his desire to return to active politics in Punjab. Chugh, a prominent Punjab face in the BJP's national structure, has been nominated amid growing speculation about Bittu's future role. The development assumes significance as both leaders have expressed their ambitions and political observers view it as a sign of potential plans for them ahead of the 2027 Assembly elections.
