Chandigarh - The post-mortem examination of slain anti-drug activist Parvinder Singh Jhota has been completed at the Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research (PGIMER) in Chandigarh on Saturday (November 7, 2026). His body will be transported from the institute around 5 a.m. on Sunday (November 8, 2026) to his native town of Mansa for cremation.
Nihang Raja Raj Singh, a religious leader, stated that Jhota's family has opted for the cremation ceremony to commence around 12 noon on Sunday (November 8, 2026). The body was initially transferred from Mansa to PGIMER after his family withdrew from a 22-day protest and consented to a post-mortem following discussions with Punjab government officials on Wednesday.
