57 -year- old Gogi became a member of parliament and was elected to represent Ludhiana West constituency in 2022.
‘I have been a vintage lover since childhood, and I haven’t left my hobby even after joining politics. I own a gun house with a huge collection of both old and new weapons. I also love collecting cars – from Maruti 800 to Ambassadors and Mercedes, I have them all. I also love my collection of coins, postal stamps etc’ the late politician, who was known to be ‘passionate’ about weapons and vehicles, had submitted in an interview a few months ago.
‘Yes, I love collecting cars and weapons. I pay income tax. The Bajaj Priya scooter I came on for filing nomination was special because my mother had gifted it to me. As long as I am working for people, it should not matter if I travel in an ambassador or Porsche’ he had also noted in his 2022 election affidavit-Team@orientactualmags.com Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
