Preneet Kaur issued notice

Union Minister of State Preneet Kaur, seeking re-election from her traditional bastion Patiala for the third time in a row, was today issued notice by District Returning Officer (DRO) for allegedly concealing information on her purported "bank accounts" in Jersey.
In the notice, DRO Priyank Bharti has asked Preneet to reply within 48 hours on the complaint filed against her by SAD candidate's election agent.
SAD's Deepinder Dhillon, a turncoat and once loyal to Preneet, is fighting against her from Patiala Lok Sabha seat.
Dhillon has filed a complaint through election agent before the DRO alleging that Preneet had an account in Jersey about which she did not mention while filing her nominations.

He has sought cancellation of Preneet's candidature for "concealing" facts in her affidavit filed before the RO.
On April 9, BJP leader Subramaniam Swamy had alleged that Congress candidate in Amritsar Lok Sabha constituency Amarinder Singh had committed "perjury" by not disclosing the foreign bank accounts of his wife and son in his nomination papers, a charge totally denied by the former Chief Minister.

Swamy released to the media details of purported bank accounts of Amarinder's wife Preneet Kaur, a Union Minister, and son Raninder Singh and asked him to make full disclosures in this regard.
Amarinder had quickly dismissed the allegations, saying they were baseless and ridiculous as his wife had no foreign bank account.

Preneet had filed her nomination papers on April 7.
