The National Investigation Agency (NIA) conducted raids in Amritsar related to pro-Khalistan preacher Amritpal Singh, currently detained in Assam, following a large gathering by his supporters. Meanwhile, the Punjab and Haryana High Court issued a notice regarding a petition challenging Singh's election to the Lok Sabha, citing alleged irregularities in his nomination affidavit and election expenditure. In a separate case, the Bombay High Court dismissed election petitions against Congress MP Shivaji Bandappa Kalge, who had won by a significant margin in Latur, Maharashtra. The petitions claimed he falsely declared his Scheduled Caste status, but the court found them lacking sufficient material evidence. The court upheld the validity of Kalge's caste certificate, emphasizing that challenges to it must demonstrate fraud or improper issuance. Both cases highlight ongoing legal scrutiny surrounding election integrity and caste representation in Indian politics.
