Ludhiana: Activists of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), led by Jagraon MLA Sarvjit Kaur Manuke, blocked the busy Ludhiana-Jagraon highway in protest against alleged irregularities in the counting of votes of the civic election. The district administration, however, refuted the allegations.
The Jagraon MLA, who staged a sit-in on the road, insisted that there were irregularities in the counting, citing that in one booth, only 1,200 votes were cast, but the counting put the figure at 1,400. She also alleged that despite being an elected representative, she was not allowed inside the counting booth, whereas Congress functionaries were allowed.
