Fadnavis rejects Sanjay Raut’s claim on PM’s retirement
''No, not a chance...there is no need to search for his successor. He is our leader and will continue," he declared in Nagpur.
Amolak Singh, an AAP MLA from Punjab, was accused of misbehaving by a traffic police officer in Chandigarh on Monday after a video of their quarrel appeared on social media.
An online video of their altercation led the traffic police officer to accuse Singh, a lawmaker from Punjab’s Jaitu, of misbehaving with him. However, the AAP MLA refuted the claim and accused the traffic police officer of inappropriate behavior.

However, the Jaitu representative from Punjab refuted the claim and accused the traffic police officer of inappropriate behavior.
What sparked the argument between the AAP MLA and Chandigarh traffic police sub-inspector Lakha Singh was not immediately clear. According to a police official, the matter is being investigated.
Partap Singh Bajwa of the Punjab Congress and Bikram Singh Majithia of the Akali asked that the AAP MLA be punished.
“MLA Amolak Singh should be arrested due to his inappropriate behavior toward Chandigarh Police officers. The DGP of Chandigarh Police and the SSP of Chandigarh should send the proper message to the city’s peace-loving residents. Let justice win,” Bajwa wrote on Twitter.
He posted the footage on his Twitter account as well.
Regarding the occurrence, Majithia questioned whether this was the kind of progress the Aam Aadmi Party had promised in Punjab.
MLA Amolak Singh is a newcomer in the Punjab Vidhan Sabha Assembly after the AAP swept the polls in 2022 Assembly polls. He had defeated his rival Congress candidate Darshan Pal Singh Dilwan by over 27, 000 votes.
In January, a similar incident involving AAP MLA Labh Singh Ugoke had come to light when he threatened a person who was opposing the opening of an Aam Aadmi clinic in Bathinda.
