Governor also raised questions
Recently, Punjab Governor Banwari Lal Purohit had raised questions on two projects of JLPL of MLA Kulwant Singh. He had written a letter to Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann in this regard seeking a reply. He had alleged that his own MLAs were doing real estate business by violating the rules. Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia has already been arrested in connection with Delhi’s liquor policy. Yesterday the Supreme Court had rejected his bail plea. The court had ordered investigation into the matter in the next 6 months. After this, this is a big action of ED in Mohali today. At the same time, ED has also summoned Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal.
