HC receives plea challenging Amritpal’s election

Hindustan Times  

A plea has been filed before Punjab and Haryana high court challenging election of radical Sikh leader and Khadoor Sahib MP, Amritpal Singh. Detained under the National Security Act, Amritpal, along with nine others from his outfit, has been lodged in Dibrugarh central jail since April last year. Booked under the National Security Act, Amritpal was detained on April 23, 2023, in a Moga village after almost a month-long chase since his escape on March 18, 2023. Thus, the respondent has not only failed to maintain her sanctity of the religious place but has also violated the provisions of the Representation of the People Act by seeking votes in the nine religious places and as such his election is liable to be set aside on this score alone,” the plea further claimed.
