Two separate corruption cases have been registered in Punjab against Rajya Sabha MP Sandeep Pathak, who recently joined the BJP after leaving the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP). However, officials have not yet confirmed the specific police stations where the FIRs have been lodged.

Non-Bailable Sections Invoked

According to sources, both cases have been filed under non-bailable sections, indicating the seriousness of the allegations. This raises the possibility of immediate legal action, including arrest without bail at the initial stage.

Punjab Police Reach Delhi Residence

Reports suggest that Punjab Police teams have reached Pathak’s residence in Delhi. Sources indicate that he could be taken into custody at any time, although there has been no official confirmation of arrest so far.

Recent Political Shift

Dr. Pathak had joined the BJP on April 25, marking a major political development. His switch came amid a larger shift, where several AAP leaders distanced themselves from the party.

Mass Exit from AAP

In a significant political move, 7 out of the 11 Rajya Sabha MPs from AAP reportedly left the party and joined the BJP around the same time. This has triggered major political ripples both in Punjab and at the national level.

Awaiting Official Confirmation

Authorities are yet to release detailed information regarding the nature of the corruption charges and the exact locations of the registered FIRs. Further developments are expected as the situation unfolds.
