Multi-cornered fight, Punjab parties edgy

As many as 328 candidates will be testing the political waters in Punjab where polling will be held for all its 13 Lok Sabha seats on Saturday. In a one-of-its-kind election, no two parties are in alliance with each other, making it a multi-cornered contest.
The ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), Congress, Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) and the BJP are locked in a tight contest. The BSP too is making a desperate bid to retain its influence among the 34 per cent Dalit voters of the state. Independent candidates like pro-Khalistan activist Amritpal Singh and Sarabjit Singh Khalsa, son of Indira Gandhi assassin Beant Singh, are also making a strong pitch.
