Manish Tewari and Ravneet Singh Bitto have been very close friends for many decades, a source says. The Ludhiana MP left Congress and joined hands with the BJP source says. The Anandpur Sahib MP, Manish Tewari is also trying for the ticket to contest source says. It’s learnt that Bitto called Tewari to convey and request that his party is trying to give him a ticket from Anandpur Sahib from where he once won the parliamentary election, a source says. He desired that Manish Tewari try for Chandigarh or Ludhiana instead of Anandpur Sahib because he would feel humiliated to talk or contest against him source says. Manish Tewari said it’s on high command but will try source says. Later, the party president proposed the name of Tewari from Chandigarh constituency, a source says.
