Even though the Punjab Assembly elections are several months away, the Congress is going all out to woo the voters.
With Prashant Kishor's Indian Political Action Committee strategising the election campaign, Congress' chief ministerial face Captain Amarinder Singh will be meeting over 2000 retired defence personnel in Pathankot on Wednesday.
Ex-servicemen are a very influential community in Punjab, which is one of the biggest contributors in terms of manpower to the defence forces.
The venue of the meeting with ex-servicemen, called Coffee With Captain, has been chosen very carefully as the Indian Air Force Base in Pathankot witnessed a major attack by Pakistani terrorists in January 2016.
One-Rank-One-Pension (OROP), better healthcare, defence canteen related issues will also be raised.
Several ex-servicemen associations will also be present.
