Punjab CM residence challan issued: A challan of Rs 10,000 has been issued against officials at the residence of Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann in Chandigarh, for "spreading dirt" outside. The Chandigarh Municipal Corporation took the action. The development came two days after Mann was admitted to a private hospital in Delhi late on Tuesday night after he complained of stomach ache.

The house address mentioned in the challan is House number-7, Sector-2, Chandigarh. Local BJP councilor Maheshinder Singh Sidhu said he had been receiving complaints for some time from residents regarding the disposal of waste by the staff of the chief minister's residence behind house number-7.

They were requested several times by the municipal corporation staff to not dump waste outside the house but it did not stop. Therefore, the challan has been issued, he said. House numbers 44, 45, 6 and 7 are part of the chief minister's residence, Sidhu said.

Councillor Maheshinder Singh Sidhu said, “I was repeatedly getting complaints from locals about littering by the staff and visitors of the Punjab CM’s residence for quite some time. Despite repeated requests and warnings by the sanitation staff, the littering continued, so the challan was issued. Hope they maintain cleanliness now. The Chief Minister is supposed to set an example for others but here his own house is not in order.”

The challan was issued in the name of CRPF DSP Harjinder Singh, who is on duty at the CM’s residence.

After arriving in Chandigarh post his discharge, Mann held a meeting with some senior police officials. He complimented the Punjab Police officials for their operation against two gangsters in Amritsar. He also released a video message, saying the state will be free from gangsters and drug peddlers.
