‘Minister facing stalking charges should resign’ Hooda

Chandigarh, Aug 26: Former Haryana chief minister Bhupinder Hooda on Saturday said the state minister Sandeep Singh, who has been booked on charges of sexual harassment and wrongful confinement of a woman coach, should resign on the moral grounds. Hooda said that the Chief Minister should seek his resignation. Addressing the media here, the two-time chief minister said the party raised this issue in the ongoing assembly session too. “Government has deliberately kept the duration of the session short as it does not want to answer important issues.” The Chandigarh Police has submitted its final report against Haryana Minister Sandeep Singh, accused in a sexual harassment case, before a court here. The filing of the charge sheet came nearly after eight months of registration of the case. Report was submitted here on Friday before the court of Chief Judicial Magistrate. (Agencies)
