Former Punjab Police officer Kunwar Vijay Pratap Singh, who had headed the SIT probing the 2015 Kotkapura and Behbal Kalan firing cases, is among the list of 30 candidates released by the Aam Aadmi Party today for the upcoming Punjab Assembly polls.
This is the second list of candidates announced by the AAP. Earlier, the party had announced names of 10 candidates who are all sitting legislators.
Mr Singh has been given a ticket from the Amritsar North seat. He had taken voluntary retirement in April this year and later joined the AAP.
Mr Singh, who was the Inspector General of Police, had tendered his resignation after the Punjab and Haryana High Court had quashed the probe by the SIT into the 2015 Kotkapura firing incident.
