Chandigarh: Punjab Government has taken action against one of its own AAP MLA from Jalandhar Central, Raman Arora. He has come under the scanner as state agencies conducted raids at his premises over serious corruption allegations.
According to initial reports, Arora was allegedly using officials in the Jalandhar Municipal Corporation to send fake notices to innocent citizens. Once those notices created panic, he would then settle them in exchange for money—turning a public office into a personal extortion racket.
What makes this action significant is that it comes not against an opposition leader, but a sitting ruling party MLA—clearly sending a strong message that the Mann government will not shield anyone involved in wrongdoing, regardless of their political affiliation.
The raid has created ripples across Punjab’s political landscape, with the public and political observers alike seeing this as a defining moment. The Punjab government had promised clean governance, and this bold action seems to be a step in keeping that promise—even if it means turning the lens inward.
More details are awaited as investigations continue.
