Chandigarh, June 16

Former Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal will appear before a Special Investigation Team (SIT) investigating the Kotkapura police firing case at his Chandigarh residence at 10.30 am on June 22. 

The SIT had rescheduled his questioning after Badal expressed inability to appear before the panel on June 16 at a rest house in Mohali. Citing ill-health and his age, besides provisions of law in questioning a witness, Badal asked the SIT to visit his Chandigarh house.

"Still not in good health, Mr Badal however is keen to fulfill his legal & constitutional duties as a law abiding citizen of the country," said Harcharan Bains, Principal Advisor to SAD President Sukhbir Singh Badal.
