The party leaders wanted to give a memorandum to the Punjab Governor but the police have not allowed them to proceed towards Governor House.

The police have asked a 5-member party delegation to come forward and give the memorandum to their senior officer, who will forward it to the Governor.

All AAP MLAs from Punjab were asked yesterday to get volunteers from their respective constituencies for the protest today.
