On Saturday, a one-day training program was organized in Chandigarh for hundreds of active social media warriors of Aam Aadmi Party from Punjab. The Punjab social media team invited Aam Aadmi Party's Punjab In-Charge Manish Sisodia and National Media In-Charge Anurag Dhanda to this program. During the program, discussions were held about strengthening the social media team down to the booth level. During this interaction, volunteers were given special training on digital strategies, spreading the government’s policies to the masses, and effective techniques for online campaigning. Members of Punjab’s social media team, including Akashnoor Gadri, Harjeet Khosa, Gursewak Singh Kang, and several others were present in this meeting.

Addressing the gathering Manish Sisodia said, “In today’s politics, social media has become a powerful medium. To take our government’s work, honest politics, education revolution, anti-drug campaign, and public welfare issues to every household, it is essential that we stay organized and active on the digital front.”

In a strongly-worded press conference, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Punjab President Aman Arora sharply criticized Congress Leader of Opposition (LOP) Partap Bajwa for making reckless statements that threaten Punjab's peace and align with the agenda of the state's adversaries. He further called out the Congress party and the BJP for their failure to clarify their positions on these provocative remarks, particularly those endorsed by controversial figures like Gurpatwant Pannun.

The Punjab and Haryana High Court, in an interim order, on Wednesday asked the Punjab government not to take "coercive" action against Leader of Opposition Partap Singh Bajwa till April 22.

The high court also sought the government’s response on Congress legislator Bajwa’s plea to quash the first information report (FIR) against him for spreading misleading information that endangers the country's sovereignty and unity.

A vacation bench of Justice Deepak Gupta, while issuing a notice returnable by April 22, said "no coercive" action shall be taken against the petitioner until the next date of hearing.

Congress leader and Leader of Opposition Partap Singh Bajwa is under fire for failing to appear at the police station despite being summoned.

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MP Malvinder Kang questioned Bajwa, asking why he is hesitant to share information about the 50 grenades he mentioned earlier with the Punjab Police, if he indeed possesses any such information.

Kang noted that while Bajwa finds time for hours-long television interviews, he fails to make time to cooperate with the police. He questioned what personal matters could possibly outweigh the security of the state and the nation. Kang further added that the police are merely seeking Bajwa’s cooperation to substantiate his statements and take appropriate action, yet he is deliberately avoiding engagement with the authorities.
