Chandigarh, September 15, 2018: Punjab government has filed application in the Punjab and Haryana High Court for reconsideration of its order allowing Akali rally at Faridkot on September 16, 2018.
Earlier in the day, the HC had directed the state government to allow the rally by the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) on the latter's plea.
It is learnt that Punjab Advocate General Atul Nanda filed the review application following which a Division Bench was set up to hear it.
The state government had denied permission to the SAD for the rally mainly citing apprehension of breach of law and order.
