<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #222222;">Former Punjab Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh today strongly condemned the arrest of Delhi Bharatiya Janata Party leader Tajinder Pal Singh Bagga by the Punjab Police in an arbitrary manner. He also asked the Punjab Police not to succumb to the dictatorial diktats of an outsider.</span></p>''<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br />''</p>''<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #222222;">Capt Amarinder said, when Punjab Police should be focused on handling the deteriorating law and order situation and insurgency threat from Pakistan, they are being assigned the job of fixing Kejriwal's political opponents in other states. The former Chief Minister specifically asked the Director-General of Punjab Police to stand up against the misuse of his force.</span></p>''<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br />''</p>''<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #222222;">Meanwhile, BJP &nbsp;leader Tajinder Pal Singh Bagga returned to Delhi this evening. After &nbsp;Delhi Police took Bagga's custody at a police station in Kurukshetra in Haryana, Punjab cops approached the Punjab and Haryana High Court against the "detention" of its police team in Kurukshetra and requested not to let the Delhi Police cross the Haryana border with Mr. Bagga.</span></p>''<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br />''</p>''<p style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #222222;">However, Punjab and Haryana High Court rejected the request of the Punjab government to keep the Bagga in Haryana and asked the Haryana Government to file a reply, regarding whether the Punjab Police officers are still detained by them.</span></p>
