In a move stirring political tensions, Punjab Police have registered FIRs against Sandeep Pathak, a recent defector from the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), under non-bailable sections. Pathak's shift to the BJP comes amidst allegations that AAP has strayed from its principles.

The BJP swiftly responded, accusing Arvind Kejriwal, AAP's convenor, of leveraging the police for political reprisals. Party spokespersons claim that the FIRs reflect the misuse of law enforcement and a collapse of law and order under the AAP government in Punjab.

BJP leaders assert that this situation exemplifies what they describe as 'vendetta politics,' while questioning the timing of these legal actions. They demand explanations from the AAP for the sudden crackdown and highlight similar pressures faced by former AAP affiliates.
