"I am not averse to join active politics again...Given chance, I would contest Gurdaspur seat in 2014," he told reporters here.

Khanna had won the Gurdaspur Lok Sabha constituency three times in a row on BJP ticket. However, he lost out the seat in 2009 Lok Sabha polls to Congress' Partap Singh Bajwa.
