Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann was allegedly made to wait for three hours at Delhi airport after returning from Paris, with the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) claiming that he was later issued a challan of Rs 50,000. The party has accused the BJP-led Centre of deliberately targeting Mann, although the reason for the alleged fine has not been specified by AAP. The incident took place late on October 19, according to AAP's Punjab unit. The controversy has added to the ongoing political confrontation between the Punjab government and the Centre over Mann's recent visit to France.
