BJP, on whose support SAD is heading the alliance government in Punjab, is well aware of this fact and understands the situation so it will not have any adverse effect on Akali-BJP relationship, he said.
INLD is contesting 88 of the 90 Assembly seats in Haryana, while SAD has fielded its candidates in Ambala city and Kalanwali seats.
Despite resentment expressed by Haryana BJP leaders over senior Akali leaders canvassing for INLD contestants, SAD patron and Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal and Sukhbir have been campaigning for party nominees in Haryana.
