The Punjab and Haryana High Court dismissed a contempt petition filed by Congress MLA Sukhpal Singh Khaira and imposed a fine of Rs 6 lakh. The court labeled the petition as an abuse of the judicial process. The case involves an administrative action taken in February to remove an encroachment from a panchayat pathway in Khaira's ancestral village. While Khaira claimed the action was vindictive and damaged his property, the court observed the land was public property. Khaira has announced plans to appeal the decision before a division bench.
