Arrested Thursday in a 2015 drug case, Khaira has been a vocal critic of the AAP govt in Punjab, but has also had differences with his current party, Congress, in the past.
After BJP leader Manjinder Sirsa claimed 'obscene' clips of Punjab minister Lal Chand Kataruchak handed to governor, CM dismissed the allegations & said he had not received any resignation.
