Cabinet Minister Dr Baljit Kaur, who is campaigning for AAP candidates — Jagdeep Singh Kaka Brar and
Karamjit Anmol in Ferozepur and Faridkot Lok Sabha constituencies — is also conducting eye check-up of
needy persons during her public meetings. “The Cabinet Minister believes in having a personal bond with
voters,” said AAP leaders.

Sukhjit Kaur, one of her patients, said, “I have never seen Dr Baljit Kaur as a politician. Once I asked her to
check my eyes during a public meeting. She did not waste a minute and simply turned on the flashlight of
her cellphone and examined my eyes.”

Despite being the Cabinet Minister, she once examined a large number of patients at a free medical check-
up camp organised at Aam Aadmi Clinic in Bhagsar village, Malout. She had also examined eyes of the
needy persons at a private hospital in Muktsar.
