In a significant move, seven associates of jailed Lok Sabha MP and pro-Khalistani leader Amritpal Singh will be repatriated from Assam’s Dibrugarh jail to Punjab. The decision, announced by a senior police officer on Sunday, comes after the state government, led by Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, chose not to extend their detention under the National Security Act (NSA). The seven individuals were initially detained for their alleged involvement in the 2023 Ajnala Police station attack and had been incarcerated in Dibrugarh for the past two years.
