New Delhi: In a significant move, the Aam Aadmi Party on Thursday (Aug. 18) appointed its Rajouri Garden MLA Jarnail Singh as its Punjab co-incharge.
Presently Mehrauli legislator Naresh Yadav, who was arrested in a Quran beadbi case, was holding this charge.

AAP spokesperson Deepak Bajpai said Naresh Yadav was not being removed from his post. Jarnail Singh will work alongside Naresh Yadav as joint in-charge and Punjab spokesperson.
The move is considered to be vital as Punjab, a Sikh majority state, is heading for assembly polls early next year.
