Arrest Laddi when he comes to file nomination, says Sukhbir Singh Badal Shiromani Akali Dal president Sukhbir Singh Badal has urged the Election Commission to get the Congress candidate for Shahkot bypoll Hardev Singh Laddi Sherowalia arrested as soon as he comes to file his nomination papers. Sukhbir was speaking at a rally held before SAD candidate Naib Singh Kohar filed his papers on Wednesday. “When he comes to file his nomination before the returning officer, he should be arrested,” Sukhbir said, adding, “It is the duty of the magistrate to arrest him especially when the case against him has been registered under non-bailable provisions and Laddi has also not secured any bail from the court.” “On one hand the state government is doing everything to save Laddi by pressuring the police, and on the other, it has registered mining cases in Gurdaspur on the basis of complaints made five years back,” he said.
