Sandeep Pathak, a Rajya Sabha MP, is likely to be arrested in Punjab following the registration of two non-bailable First Information Reports (FIRs) against him. Pathak, who recently left the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) to join the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), was one of seven AAP MPs who announced their departure last month. Visuals showed increased security around his official residence in New Delhi, and reports indicate that he has moved to an undisclosed location, turning off his phone. The BJP is working with its legal team to secure relief for him. Since seven out of ten AAP Rajya Sabha MPs have switched parties, they are unlikely to face disqualification under the anti-defection law, known as the Tenth Schedule of the Constitution.
