Three senior Punjab Police officers have requested additional time after receiving notices from the Delhi Assembly concerning an FIR filed against Delhi minister Kapil Mishra. This FIR alleges that Mishra circulated a 'doctored' video featuring AAP leader Atishi.

Delhi Speaker Vijender Gupta issued the notices, labeling the FIR and video circulation as a 'privilege breach' against the Delhi Assembly. Meanwhile, the officers have asked for a ten-day extension to respond.

In the fallout, the video has been claimed by Punjab Police as 'edited', sparking tensions between Delhi and Punjab. The video led to accusations of Atishi disrespecting Guru Tegh Bahadur during an Assembly debate.
