Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Tajinder Pal Singh Bagga on Friday termed his detention by the Punjab police as “illegal” and said that he will keep fighting until Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal apologized for his comments on Kashmiri Pandits. The family members of Bagga could be seen celebrating his return to his house in Delhi.
Bagga reached his residence in Delhi on the intervening nights of Friday and Saturday after he was detained by Punjab Police in the national capital yesterday. On their way to Mohali, the team was stopped by Haryana cops after the Delhi Police registered a kidnapping case based on a complaint by Bagga’s father.
Haryana Police surrounded the Punjab Police car carrying Bagga and escorted them off the highway to a police station in Kurukshetra. The Punjab cops were detained.
At the same time, the Punjab and Haryana High Court turned down AAP-ruled Punjab’s demand that Bagga remains in Haryana instead of being handed over to Delhi cops.
