Pro-Khalistan suspect held for plot to murder ex-Punjab CM
A man suspected to be a member of a pro-Khalistan group was on Thursday arrested in Uttar Pradesh's Shamli for allegedly plotting to assassinate ex-Punjab CM Parkash Singh Badal at a public rally. The SAD leader was being targetted because of his anti-Khalistan stance, police said. Badal's son Sukhbir and daughter-in-law, Union Minister Harsimrat Kaur, were also allegedly being targetted.
