The Directorate of Enforcement (ED), Jalandhar Zonal Office, secured the conviction of Sanjeev Kumar, the then Sub-Post Master, Dakhni Gate, Nakodar, Jalandhar, in the case involving misappropriation of public funds by opening 54 fake post office savings accounts. The Special Court (PMLA), SAS Nagar (Mohali), sentenced Sanjeev Kumar on September 14 after finding him guilty of money laundering under Section 3, punishable under Section 4, of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) 2002, the ED said. The then Sub-Post Master was sentenced to rigorous imprisonment for one year and six months and fined Rs 50,000. In default of payment of the fine, he shall undergo further rigorous imprisonment for three months. The PMLA investigation was initiated based on CBI FIR No. RCCHG2018A004 dated February 1, 2018, registered against Sanjeev Kumar and other accused persons in relation to allegations of fraud, misappropriation and abuse of official position of Sub-Post Master, Dakhni Gate, Nakodar, district Jalandhar, said the ED. The ED investigation revealed that Sanjeev Kumar allegedly opened 54 fake savings accounts and caused a loss to the government exchequer of Rs 3.40 crore, manipulated entries in 41 savings accounts and caused a loss of Rs 2.79 crore, manipulated 51 RD accounts and caused a loss of Rs 1.89 crore and manipulated other accounts such as PPF and Term deposits of customers and fraudulently withdrew government funds to the tune of Rs 8.48 crore, said an official statement. The ED said the accused withdrew these funds in cash and through multiple bank accounts maintained by him and his associates. Through the criminal activities, the accused generated huge Proceeds of Crime (POC) and utilised the same in maintaining a lavish lifestyle, splurging on gambling, personal expenditure and purchase of immovable properties, it said. During the course of the investigation, the ED provisionally attached movable and immovable properties valued at Rs 42 lakh through Provisional Attachment Order No. 04 of 2025 dated March 2, 2025, and subsequently confirmed the action on August 20, 2025.

The Special Court also directed that the amount recovered from the accused shall be payable to the office of the Superintendent of Post Offices, Kapurthala Division, and held that the victim department would be entitled to move an application under Section 8(8) of the PMLA read with the Restoration of Property Rules, 2016, in respect of the attached property, if any, the ED said.
4-year-old Jalandhar boy abducted while playing, found 12 hours later: Safety lessons for parents
Digital Desk | Pathankot, Sep 18 (IANS) Saying Punjab faces an enemy that doesnt wear a uniform and sneaks silently into villages and homes, BJP National President, Nitin Nabin, on Friday rolled out the 13-day-long 'Drug-Free Punjab Journey from Pathankot, that will cover 4,000-kms across all 117 Assembly seats. Nabin said he had come from Patna, the land of Guru Gobind Singh, to Punjab. From there (Patna), I have brought just one message: That this drug-free campaign must be taken to every nook and corner of Punjab, and by joining hands with every single Punjabi, we must strengthen this campaign, he said, while addressing a gathering at the launch of the partys campaign in the election-bound state that shares a border with Pakistan. I have come with a call to make Punjab completely drug-free, he said at the flag-off event of the first march from Ekta Sthal at Madhopur in Pathankot district. Union Home Minister Amit Shah is scheduled to address the concluding rally in Jalandhar on September 30. Just hours before the launch, a convoy of senior party leader Ravneet Singh Bittu was attacked when he was on the way to attend the event. BJP President Nabin said, Todays day is very special for me as well. I have come with that issue, on which the pain and agony is being heard in every home of Punjab. I have come to connect myself with that pain. Our young Punjabis, whenever a threat loomed on the country's borders, or looms even now, stand ready at the frontlines with rifles in hand. But today, Punjab faces an enemy that doesnt wear a uniform; it sneaks silently into our villages and homes, gradually ensnaring entire families in its grip. This enemy is none other than addiction, and its mafia, the ones we must resolve to eradicate. He added that he had come to the heroic land of Pathankot not just to embark on a journey, but to begin a new battle for Punjab with a resolve. Just now, I was offering floral tribute at the statue of Shyama Prasad Mukherjee. This very place in Pathankot is where, when he was on his way to oppose Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir, he was arrested. After that, the BJP fought a long battle. I, too, got the opportunity to go to Kashmir in 2012, he said. The BJP chief further asserted that he was saying this today because if a BJP worker or leader takes any resolve, they also possess the strength to take it to fruition and complete it. We struggled for a long time, but throughout our entire struggle, resolve was tied to us. That was the reason we freed Jammu and Kashmir from Article 370 in 2019. Without mincing words, Nabin, who was sporting a saffron coloured turban, said, I have come to stand in solidarity with the people amid this suffering. We must take this 'Nasha Mukt' campaign to every corner of Punjab and strengthen it by uniting with every Punjabi and every community in the state. When the BJP, its workers and its leadership, undertake a pledge, it possesses the determination and capability to see it through to fruition.

Punjab BJP leaders meet DGP for adequate security of Nasha Mukt Yatras
Digital Desk | Chandigarh, Sep 14 (IANS) With the objective of creating public awareness against drugs in Punjab and taking a resolve to make the state drug-free, Punjab Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will organise four Nasha Mukt Punjab Yatras from September 18 to 30. In connection with these yatras, a delegation led by state President Kewal Singh Dhillon on Monday met the Director General of Police (DGP) and submitted a memorandum seeking adequate security and traffic arrangements along the entire route of the yatras. On the occasion, Dhillon said that Union Ministers, senior BJP leadership and other BJP leaders, besides a large number of party workers and members of the public, would participate in the yatras. Therefore, adequate security arrangements must be put in place along the entire route, including the starting and concluding points of the yatras. He said the yatras would commence from Sujanpur in Pathankot, Fatehgarh Sahib, Fazilka and Talwandi Sabo. Dhillon said on September 18, BJP national President Nitin Nabin would flag off the yatra from Ekta Sthal in Sujanpur. Besides, Union Ministers Shivraj Singh Chouhan and Arjun Ram Meghwal, Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta and other senior leaders would join the yatras at different stages. The concluding rally of the yatras is in Jalandhar on September 30. A large gathering of people is expected on the occasion. The state BJP President appealed to the police administration to ensure that no anti-social or mischievous elements get an opportunity to disrupt the yatras. At the same time, traffic arrangements should be planned and put in place in advance in coordination with district police officials to ensure the smooth conduct of the yatras and minimise inconvenience to the public. Dhillon said the Nasha Mukt Punjab Yatra is not merely a political programme, but an effort to build a mass movement to protect the youth and families of Punjab from the menace of drugs. He said drugs have become the biggest challenge facing Punjab today. It is extremely important to eradicate this menace from Punjab, as drug abuse is leading to a rise in crime, gang culture and cases of extortion. He said the Aam Aadmi Party government had come to power promising to eradicate drugs within three months, but instead of declining, drugs are today being delivered to homes across the state. The government is also attempting to silence voices raised against drugs in an effort to hide its failure.

Akali Dal opposes removal of papers on Punjab history by Panjab University
Digital Desk | Chandigarh, Sep 12 (IANS) The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) on Saturday expressed concern over the removal of four papers covering the history of Punjab from the postgraduate history syllabus of the Panjab University in Chandigarh, contending that the move would do a disservice to preserving the state's rich historical heritage. Giving details on the issue, senior Akali leader Daljit Singh Cheema said the four papers, which provided students an opportunity to study the history of Punjab from the 15th to the 17th century, the 18th century, the 19th century, and the 20th century, should not be tinkered with in any form. He said he had taken up the issue with the Vice-Chancellor as well as the Head of the Department of History, both of whom had assured him that the decision was being reversed shortly and the entire earlier syllabus would be restored. Stressing that such decisions, which had deep cultural and historical sensitivities for Punjabis, are not repeated in future, Cheema said: Punjabs history must remain an integral and respected part of the academic study. Panjab University, where 75 per cent of graduating students are women, is a 143-year-old varsity with its alma mater including former Prime Ministers Dr Manmohan Singh and I.K. Gujral, and former President Shankar Dayal Sharma. In Chandigarh, the joint capital of Punjab and Haryana, a beautiful red sandstone campus was designed for the varsity by Pierre Jeanneret under the guidance of Swiss-French architect Le Corbusier. The university moved here from 1958 to 1960. Till the re-organisation of Punjab in 1966, the university had its regional centres at Rohtak, Shimla, and Jalandhar, and its affiliated colleges were located in Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh and the Union Territory of Chandigarh. With the re-organisation of Punjab, the university became an Inter-State Body Corporate catering to the newly organised states of Haryana, Himachal Pradesh and Punjab and Chandigarh. Gradually, the colleges of Himachal and Haryana were affiliated to the universities in the respective states, and Panjab University was left with the affiliated colleges in the Union Territory of Chandigarh and parts of Punjab. The Panjab University Campus, located in Sectors 14 and 25, spreads across 550 acres.

Digital Desk | Mohali, Sep 10 (IANS) Amritsar Soormas continued their impressive late-season surge in the Sher-E-Punjab T20 League with a thrilling nine-run win over Jalandhar Warriors, securing their third consecutive victory and strengthening their playoff push.

Drug trafficking accused arrested after fleeing from NCB custody in J&K
Digital Desk | Jammu, Sep 10 (IANS) Officials of the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) said on Thursday that the drug trafficking accused, who had escaped from custody in J&Ks Jammu city on September 7, has been re-arrested. The officials said the NCB, in coordination with the Jammu and Kashmir Police and Punjab Police, has re-arrested the drug trafficking accused, who had fled from custody in Jammu. The accused had fled from Jammu and travelled towards Jalandhar via the Pathankot route, the officials said. He allegedly took shelter in a forested area near Narwal Fruit Mandi before altering his appearance by shaving his beard and changing his clothes. The official said that following a three-day search and tracking operation across Jammu and Kashmir and Punjab, a joint team of NCB Jammu, NCB Amritsar, NCB Chandigarh and Punjab Police traced and apprehended him in Jalandhar. The accused was identified as Aqib Bashir. The accused was preparing to move towards Delhi or another state when he was apprehended. The accused used his contacts in Jalandhar to seek shelter and evade the search teams. Intelligence inputs and field efforts helped the agencies track his location. Aqib Bashir was arrested when he was preparing to move towards Delhi or another state. His initial arrest was part of a month-long operation by the NCB in the Jammu division, which exposed two distinct routes used by narcotic smugglers to push heroin into the union territory from Pakistan through the Uri sector and indirectly via Punjab. The NCB had earlier arrested him with 522 grams of heroin from a passenger bus in Samba district on September 3, the officials said. Further investigation is underway to ascertain the circumstances of his escape and identify those who allegedly provided him shelter and facilitated his movement. Intelligence agencies believe that the major portion of narcotics smuggled into the country from Pakistan is used to sustain terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir
