New Delhi: There is nothing like star power during elections. Ahead of the Assembly polls in Punjab, actor Mahie Gill is likely to join Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) Punjab unit in Chandigarh on Monday, February 7, India Today reported.

In December last year, she had campaigned for a childhood friend and Congress candidate Harmohinder Singh Lucky. She had said that she was only supporting him. She had reportedly said that she had “no plan of joining politics, but could do so in future”.

The Punjab Assembly polls will be a four-corner contest with ruling Congress taking on Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD)-Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) alliance and the alliance of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Captain Amarinder Singh’s Punjab Lok Congress.

Polling for the 117-member Punjab Assembly is scheduled to be held on February 20. The counting of votes will be taken up on March 10.
