From door-to-door campaigning to camping in his constituency, Himachal Pradesh Congress chief Sukhvinder Singh Sukkhu is trying every bit to dethrone his old rival and sitting BJP MLA Vijay Agnihotri to get Nadaun seat in the upcoming Himachal Pradesh Assembly election.
Mr Agnihotri had defeated Mr Sukkhu by a margin of 6,750 votes in the last election.
The veteran Congress leader is banking upon the Ghirath votes and women voters to be his trump card in the November 9 Assembly polls.
The man, however, is not taking the situation lying down. Assisted by his wife Kamlesh Kumari, he has been visiting every village and meeting people, telling them about the developmental works done by him and the party. His wife is also taking a group of women with her and spreading a good word about her husband.
There are 86,814 votes -- 42,180 male, 42,868 female and 1,766 service voters -- in the constituency, where the polling percentage is usually high.
Also in the poll fray in this six-cornered contest are Zila Parishad member Lekh Raj Sharma, a BJP rebel, Ravi Parkash from BSP and Prithi Chand Sharma and Ranjeet Singh as Independents.
