Chandigarh/Amritsar, April 23 (Agencies): Radical preacher Amritpal Singh was arrested early Sunday in Rode village of Punjab's Moga district, more than a month after the state police launched a crackdown on him following his supporters' storming of the Ajnala police station to secure the release of an arrested associate. Amritpal, 29, was arrested at 6:45
In the absence of direct evidence linking him to Pakistan or foreign funding, Amritpal Singh’s speeches on social media and otherwise have become the main grounds on which the National Security Act has been invoked against him.
