A major cyber scam has emerged in Punjab, in which the names of Aam Aadmi Party minister Harjot Bains and his wife SP Jyoti Yadav have been allegedly linked. The politics of Punjab has completely heated up over this matter and the opposition parties are demanding an investigation into it.

This matter has come to light from the letter written by the former inspector of cyber cell in Mohali, Amanjot Kaur, to the DGP.

Congress MLA Pargat Singh said that Professor Balwinder Kaur also wrote the minister's name in her suicide note and all these cases should be investigated impartially. At the same time, Minister Harjot Singh Bains has warned to file a defamation suit for denying the allegations against him and his wife.
