Punjab AAP MLA Labh SinghPhoto : ANIChandigarh: Earlier this week, the Aam Aadmi Party won a landslide victory in the Punjab Assembly elections, securing 92 seats and upstaging some of the biggest political personalities in the state. Among the winners was AAP leader Labh Singh Ugoke who won against Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi by a whopping 37,550 votes from the Bhadaur seat.”I contested for the first time; family supported me. It’s a new type of politics in which a labourer’s son can become MLA. I’ll work to improve condition of hospitals and improve quality of education,” Ugoke who used to work in a mobile repairing shop asserted. According to reports quoting his father – who used to work as a labourer – the family intends to continue living the same as earlier. “We have always worked hard to earn money. Irrespective of my son’s position, I will continue to perform my duty in the school,” his mother Baldev Kaur who works as a sweeper in a government school told news agency ANI. Ugoke had joined the AAP in 2013, rising quickly through the ranks. While he had sought a party ticket from the Bhadaur seat in 2017, the party had decided otherwise at the time.
