"A team of police has been sent to Delhi to arrest the AAP MLA," Punjab Police, IG (Patiala Zone), Paramraj Singh Umra Nangal said.
Yadav was booked under relevant sections of the IPC after one of the accused, Vijay Kumar, arrested in connection with the incident, claimed he had done it at the behest of the AAP MLA.
The Punjab police has already questioned the AAP MLA twice in connection with the incident.
Police had claimed Vijay had even met the MLA before the incident and calls were also exchanged between them.

Meanwhile, in-charge of Aam Aadmi Party Punjab and the party's national spokesman Sanjay Singh said that the business community is the back-bone of the state's economy and if voted to power AAP would provide business-friendly atmosphere in the state.
Once AAP is voted to power, social security of the business community would be ensured and to give prompt clearance to new businesses, a single-window system would be launch to cut red-tape and 'Inspector Raj', he said.
Singh said in Delhi, the Kejriwal government has reduced the Value Added Tax (VAT) from 12.5 to 5 per cent on several items.
"Efforts would be made to revive the sick industry and bring back the industrial units, which were shifted from Punjab by extending them the deserving support," he said.
