Twentyfour days after the Local Bodies Department cancelled the membership of Amarjit Singh Sidhu as councillor, the BJP leader was back at the seat of Mayor in the Mohali Municipal Corporation office today.
Acting on a petition filed by Mohali Mayor Amarjit Singh Sidhu, the Punjab and Haryana High Court today stayed the operation of an order passed by the State of Punjab’s Department of Local Government, whereby he was removed from the councillor’s post.
The Punjab’s Local Government Department has terminated the membership of BJP councillor and Mohali Mayor Amarjit Singh Sidhu, alias Jeeti Sidhu, in a conflict of interest case over the allotment of tenders for development works.
