Overview
- Jalandhar Police registered a case over the uploading and circulation of an edited video that forensic examiners said falsely attributed the word “Guru” to Atishi.
- Investigators said the clip analyzed was downloaded from Delhi minister Kapil Mishra’s social media post, with the FIR lodged at the cyber cell on a local complainant’s plea.
- Delhi Speaker Vijender Gupta called the Punjab action a breach of the House’s privilege, sought documents, and issued 48‑hour notices to three senior Punjab Police officers.
- Punjab Police said no accused was named in the FIR at registration, while opposition leaders including Sukhpal Singh Khaira and Pargat Singh said they were booked for sharing the clip.
- Political protests widened, with BJP demonstrations in Delhi and AAP rallies across Punjab, as the Delhi Assembly’s own forensic review of its recording remained pending public release.
