JJP Elevates Brij Sharma to Lead Haryana Unit as National Secretary

JJP appoints Brij Sharma as Haryana unit chief after Nishan Singh's resignation. Sharma, from Karnal, will lead the party as it contests the Lok Sabha elections in Haryana, having recently parted ways with its ally BJP.

The Jannayak Janta Party (JJP) on Friday appointed its national general secretary Brij Sharma as the new Haryana unit chief.

Earlier this month, JJP's Haryana unit chief Nishan Singh had quit the party.

According to a party statement, Sharma is a resident of Karnal.

Headed by former MP Ajay Singh Chautala, the five-and-a-half-year-old JJP parted ways with its ally BJP last month and announced that it would field candidates for the May 25 Lok Sabha elections in Haryana. It has already announced candidates for some of the seats.
