Senior Aam Aadmi Party leader Bhagwant Mann Friday filed his nomination papers for the Sangrur Lok Sabha seat in Punjab.

In his election affidavit, Mann, a resident of Mohali, has declared total assets of Rs 1.64 crore.He has shown no investments in bonds, debentures or NSS and insurance policies.

The stand-up comedian-turned-politician has declared movable and immovable assets worth Rs 38.27 lakh and Rs 1.26 crore respectively, and has shown cash-in-hand at Rs 25,000, as per the affidavit.

Mann owns two vehicles one worth Rs 11.87 lakh and the other valued at Rs 8.50 lakh.

Earlier this month, the AAP leader had sought financial support from people for campaigning in the general elections, saying for electioneering "money is needed and I am requesting you to give 'Dasvandh' (one-tenth of income) so we can encourage people with clean image."
