The police denied that Amritpal was detained or put under house arrest. A large number of cops have been deployed at Moga’s Singhwala village where Amritpal is staying in a house adjacent to a gurdwara, said a police official.

Amritpal was scheduled to visit Jalandhar on Saturday to attend a religious function.
