Controversial remarks: Hans put on notice

Faridkot: Three days after the alleged controversial remarks by BJP candidate Hans Raj Hans at Bihlewala village in Faridkot, Returning Officer of the Faridkot constituency issued a notice to him on Sunday.

The action comes following a complaint by representatives of the United Kisan Morcha who accused him of using “inflammatory” language, aimed at polarising voters along caste lines.
