Chandigarh, April 11

Hours after Parampal Kaur Sidhu, daughter-in-law of SAD leader Sikander Singh Maluka, joined the BJP on Thursday, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann said that her resignation has not been accepted by the government.

Taking to X, Mann asked her to understand the procedure for acceptance of voluntary retirement.

The CM also warned Parampal Kaur that joining a political party without resignation being accepted could land her in trouble.

Parampal Kaur is a 2011 batch IAS officer, and had sought voluntary retirement last week.

Meanwhile, Parampal Kaur’s application for voluntary retirement has been accepted by the Department of Personnel and Training, Government of India.
