Haryanvi artist and popular stage performer Sapna Choudhary has refuted all reports of joining Congress on Sunday. "I have not joined the Congress party. The photograph with Priyanka Gandhi Vadra is old. I am not going to campaign for any political party", she clarified.

Earlier, there were reports that Choudhary will contest against the Bharatiya Janata Party's Hema Malini in Mathura constituency. Party sources had said that Mathura has dominant Jat presence and Choudhary comes from the same background. Hence, she is the perfect candidate for the prestigious poll war.
