Punjab minister Fauja Singh Sarari resigns amid row over viral extortion audio

Chandigarh: Punjab Food Processing and Horticulture Minister Fauja Singh Sarari has resigned from his post. He says that he has resigned due to personal reasons.

He is and will remain a loyal soldier of the party. With this, the Punjab Cabinet is being reshuffled today, while the portfolios of many ministers will be changed.

Sarari’s purported audio went viral in September, after which the Aam Aadmi Party issued two show-cause notices to him.

After this resignation, there is a possibility of a major reshuffle in the Punjab cabinet.

According to the news received now, the portfolios of many ministers can also be changed. At the same time, it is being said that new faces will get a chance.

The new faces are likely to be sworn in in a simple ceremony at the Governor’s residence today.
