Punjab chief minister Bhagwant Mann on Monday removed his officer on special duty (OSD) Onkar Singh after the AAP asked four ministers to step down from cabinet.
Onkar Singh, a close ally of CM Mann and an important figure in the Dhuri assembly segment, was appointed as the OSD in August 2022 as a reward for his loyalty.

According to sources, Singh was managing political activities of the CM’s wife Dr Gurpreet Kaur.
The removal of Singh has left many politicians and officials in a tizzy as the reason behind the decision was still unknown. Earlier, Mann had removed his old-time friend Manjit Singh from the post of OSD.
