Talwandi Sabo, August 12 – Expelled AAP member and singer Balkar Sidhu’s mother Charanjit Kaur today stormed the press conference of Talwandi Sabo AAP candidate Baljinder Kaur, claiming that the AAP leadership cancelled ticket to her son on baseless charges.
Tempers ran high as AAP leaders leveled charges against Sidhu, who was earlier given the AAP ticket but later dumped by the party. Sidhu’s supporters raised voice against AAP candidate Baljinder Kaur and her family members when the AAP team brought a villager from Poohla, Bathinda district, Harbant Singh, to talk against him.
The timely intervention of the police saved the situation from turning ugly as Balkar’s mother Charanjit Kaur and her supporters started raising slogans in support of Balkar Sidhu and exchanging heated arguments with AAP volunteers.
AAP spokesperson Kultar Singh urged both the parties to refrain from using foul language. Balkar’s mother alleged Harbans Singh of their village had falsely accused her son of taking Rs 7.5 lakh from a girl to help her migrate to Canada.
DSP Malkit Singh said, “Police are looking into the episode.”
