Punjabi comedian Gurpreet Ghuggi joined the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) here on Wednesday.
He joined the AAP in the presence of senior leader Sanjay Singh, who is the in-charge of the party's Punjab affairs, and popular Punjabi comedian and Sangrur Member of Parliament (MP) Bhagwant Mann.

Ghuggi is the second Punjabi actor to join the party after Mann.
