The apex court's decision is seen as a pivotal shift in the political dynamics of Punjab.

As Majithia walked free, he was greeted by a crowd of enthusiastic supporters and party workers outside the jail. Drawing on the valor of historical figures, Majithia expressed gratitude to Guru Sahib and the Sahibzaade, stating that the journey ahead remains challenging, yet they will steadfastly pursue the path of truth.
