FIR Registered Against Former Punjab Youth Congress President Brinder Dhillon for Assault
Chandigarh Police registered an FIR against former Punjab Youth Congress president Brinder Dhillon for allegedly assaulting former Punjab Congress Committee secretary Ranjeet Singh Tarkhan Majra at Congress Bhawan on October 27. Tarkhan Majra accused Dhillon of caste-based abuse, slapping, and threats, with witnesses named in the complaint. A preliminary inquiry found a prima facie case under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita but did not establish Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes Act violations. The Congress had issued Dhillon a show-cause notice regarding the incident.
