India, Sept. 22 -- The Aam Aadmi Party on Monday accused opposition leaders of politicising a drug-related incident in Namol village, Sangrur, and defending a man against whom it said nine cases have been registered since 2018. AAP Punjab president and Cabinet Minister Aman Arora said four of the cases had resulted in convictions and included drug and liquor-related offences, while a rape case was also registered.

Arora said two panchayats in Namol, along with gurdwara committees, farmers' organisations and villagers, had passed a joint resolution against drug sales. He said the village had collectively decided to prevent the sale of drugs and accused opposition leaders of ignoring this local position while commenting on the incident.
