Punjab: ED summons Raninder Singh on November 19
Description
JALANDHAR: The Enforcement Directorate has issued fresh summons to Punjab chief minister Captain Amarinder Singh’s son Raninder Singh, asking him to appear before it on November 19 in an old case of Foreign Exchange Money Act. Raninder had missed the November 6 date on the grounds of high fever, cold and cough and being under 14-day quarantine. On October 27, he had said that as the president of National Rifle Association of India, he was to attend a meeting of the Parliamentary Standing Committee in Rajya Sabha to discuss preparations for the Olympics. Raninder had last appeared before the ED on July 21, 2016. Amarinder and AICC general secretary and party affairs in-charge Harish Rawat had questioned the timing of the summons linking it with Punjab government’s strong opposition to Centre’s new farm bills.
