Ravneet Singh Bittu detained after protest with liquor bottle, eggs, tomatoes

Former Union Minister and BJP leader Ravneet Singh Bittu was detained by Punjab Police on Saturday following a protest he organized outside Punjab Agricultural University (PAU) in Ludhiana. The protest occurred as CM Bhagwant Mann's convoy was passing through the area. Bittu arrived with a liquor bottle, eggs, and tomatoes, holding the bottle towards Mann's convoy and allegedly saying he was "returning the bottle" to Mann, instructing him to "enjoy his liquor" while allowing AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal to "loot Punjab from Delhi".

This protest came a day after similar items were thrown at Bittu's convoy. Bittu stated that on Friday, eggs and tomatoes were thrown at his convoy, and on Saturday, he was returning them. He added, "If AAP workers are going to protest against BJP leaders, rallies and yatras, BJP workers will also exercise their right to protest against Punjab government and its leaders. We will not remain silent."
