Actress Kirron Kher, who is contesting the Lok Sabha election from Chandigarh on a BJP ticket, says it's time to deliver and not to make promises.

"Good morning Chandigarh! This election is not about promises but about delivering. Promises have been made for the last 15 years but nothing changed," Kirron posted on her Twitter page Wednesday.

The actress is married to Anupam Kher, who has also been actively campaigning for his wife.

In Chandigarh, over six lakh voters will decide the fate of sitting MP Pawan Kumar Bansal, who has been MP from here in 1991, 1999, 2004 and 2009, and 16 other candidates.

Bansal is being challenged by three women candidates - Kirron, Gulkirat (Gul) Kaur Panag of the AAP and Jannat Jahan-ul-Haq of the BSP.
