AAP leaders from Delhi have taken over the residences of Punjab ministers, a claim made by senior politician Sukhbir Singh Jakhar.
Senior Punjab politician Sukhbir Singh Jakhar alleged that leaders of the Delhi unit of the Aam Aadmi Party have entered and occupied the official residences of several Punjab ministers. The claim was reported in a statement released to the media, where Jakhar described the move as a direct challenge to the state government.
According to the allegation, the AAP leaders entered the houses without prior permission and set up temporary arrangements, prompting concerns over security and political propriety. The ministers affected have not publicly commented on the incident, and law‑enforcement agencies have not confirmed any official complaint.
The incident comes amid heightened political tensions between the Delhi and Punjab branches of the AAP, with both sides accusing each other of undermining party unity. Observers note that such intra‑party disputes could influence upcoming electoral strategies in both regions.
No further details on the number of houses involved or the identities of the occupying leaders have been disclosed. The situation remains under close watch by political analysts and local authorities.
