The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Thursday released its list of candidates for the upcoming Rajya Sabha elections, fielding 11 leaders from Arunachal Pradesh, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Manipur, Rajasthan and Odisha.
Punjabi singer Jasbir Jassi has criticised the BJP after rapper Yo Yo Honey Singh met senior party leader Tarun Chugh to discuss Punjab’s growing drug crisis. Jassi questioned the decision to involve Honey Singh in an anti-drug awareness initiative, referring to the rapper’s past struggles with substance abuse.
