Last week, Amritpal Singh, the jailed head of the pro-Khalistan outfit Waris Punjab de, announced his intention to contest the Lok Sabha elections from Punjab’s Khadoor Sahib seat, to be held on June 1. Though his ability to campaign may be limited, his right to contest polls while facing criminal charges will not be under question unless he is convicted. However, he will be bared from casting his vote in the upcoming elections — much like other accused people in prisoners across India. =̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵: Foru0026of IAS Prelims Pendrive/Online Courses: [ 🔗 Click ‼️ ] Online IAS GS (Prelims + Mains) Foundation Courseplaylist- [ 🔗 Click ‼️ ] GS Foundation Course (Prelims+Mains) (Online Classes): [ 🔗 Click ‼️ ] Click to get information about all our branches : [ 🔗 Click ‼️ ] Tocall us: 9319290700/9319290701/9319290702 Mail us: [email protected]    =̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵: [ 🔗 Click ‼️ ] =̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵=̵-    1.Recap 2023: [ 🔗 Click ‼️ ]   2.
