The Punjab Vigilance Bureau on Monday arrested former Congress minister Bharat Bhushan Ashu from a local salon near the residence of Congress MP Ravneet Singh Bittu, according to a police official.

Meanwhile, Congress workers protested outside the Vigilance Bureau office in Ludhiana over the arrest of party leader Ashu.

"Vigilance Bureau arrested former minister Bharat Bhushan Ashu in food grains transportation tenders scam and further investigation in this case is under progress. Further investigation in this regard is under progress and involvement of others would also be probed in this scam," the Punjab government-led by Bhagwant Mann said in a tweet.
