He said he was framed under political vendetta and people would pay back to the Badals in the upcoming 2017 elections.

Yadav’s lawyer Harpal Cheema said they would present their arguments of being not guilty duing the next hearing on October 17.

He said Sucha Singh Chhotepur’s new party would not have any effect on the AAP. Moreover, Punjab people have already forgotten Chhotepur, added Yadav.
