Taking to Twitter, Bajwa wrote, "I am glad that Punjab CM Charanjit Singh Channi has responded to my demand regarding creating a new district of Batala. I hope justice would be done soon in this matter and historic wrong will be undone by the government."

Aam Aadmi Party emerged as the second-largest party winning 20 seats in 117-member Punjab Legislative Assembly. The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) could only manage to win 15 seats while the BJP secured 3 seats. (ANI)
