On the copy of the list stamped October 1, 2026 11:00:06 PM, the only other accepted candidate in the district is Jessy Sahota of the Conservative Party. Nominations close at 1 p.m. on October 3, 2026. His BC NDP campaign page says he holds a bachelor's degree and a master's degree in physiotherapy, and that he set up and manages five physiotherapy clinics in the Lower Mainland. It also says he has done grassroots organizing with the BC NDP. These are the campaign's own statements, and voche.me has not checked them with the body that registers physiotherapists. The Surrey Now-Leader names him as the BC NDP candidate and calls him a physiotherapist. StudioX News, a Surrey news site, reports that the party's announcement also describes him as a member of the board of PICS Society, a Surrey nonprofit that serves newcomers. voche.me has not confirmed that role. In 2024, Conservative Linda Hepner won Surrey-Serpentine River with 9,782 votes (49.70 percent). The BC NDP candidate, Baltej Singh Dhillon, received 9,347 votes (47.49 percent). Sikander Kang's name does not appear in the 2024 statement of votes. The Surrey Now-Leader reports that Hepner decided not to run in 2026.

StudioX News says the BC NDP announced Kang in a release that named five candidates. voche.me did not find that release on the party's releases page on 2026-10-02, so the quote below rests on StudioX News. StudioX News also reports that the party describes him as a member of the PICS Society board. voche.me has not confirmed that role, his degrees, his clinics or his registration as a physiotherapist. His Facebook and Instagram accounts, linked from his campaign page, need a login to read, so nothing from them is used. Searches for his name also return a LinkedIn profile for a person with the same name; no page ties it to this candidacy, so nothing from it is used. voche.me found no interview, platform of his own, campaign finance report or endorsement on 2026-10-02. Nominations close October 3, 2026, so other candidates may still be added. The questionnaire has not been sent. Research status ## What voche.me has checked Evidence reviewed on 2026-10-02: the Elections BC candidate list and key dates page, the 2024 statement of votes, his BC NDP campaign page, the BC NDP platform, candidate list and releases pages, two Surrey Now-Leader reports, a StudioX News profile, the PICS Society team page, and web searches for his name with the district, Surrey, the party and his job. The campaign page carries his biography and the party's plan, and links to a Facebook and an Instagram account that need a login to read. voche.me found one statement in his own words, quoted by StudioX News. The party platform entries below are the BC NDP's text, and they do not name him. An empty section records what voche.me did not find on this date. 03 / Background ## Experience & community Before 2026 ### Physiotherapist and clinic owner His campaign page says he set up and manages five physiotherapy clinics in the Lower Mainland.
