Congress MLAs Sukhpal Khaira and Pargat Singh have released some documents in which Delhi CM and national convenor of the AAP Arvind Kejriwal has been shown as the convener of Punjab. His name is on the top in the Z Plus category of security. Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann's is on the second position while at present Bhagwant Maan is the head of the AAP in Punjab.
