Jalandhar: Jalandhar Central AAP MLA Raan Arora's security was restored on Friday evening. His security was withdrawn in the second week of May 13 last year, and on May 23 he was arrested by Vigilance Bureau in a corruption case. Arora was away in Chandigarh to attend the Assembly session when police personnel and a vehicle arrived at his residence."I was in Chandigarh and on my way back I got the call from my family that police personnel have arrived at my home to provide security," he said while speaking to TOI on Friday evening. Police officials said four police personnel were deployed with him.After Arora was arrested, AAP appointed Jalandhar-based industrialist Nitin Kohli as constituency in-charge of the state assembly.Earlier Arora had around a dozen Punjab Police personnel, three times more than typically deployed with an MLA, but on May 13, 2025, all were withdrawn.VB arrested Arora after registering a case against assistant town planner Sukhdev Vashisht following a complaint. In the corruption case, the Punjab and Haryana high court granted him bail on Sept 3, but before his release from Nabha jail, Jalandhar Commissionerate police brought him on a production warrant in an extortion case registered against him on Aug 23. In the extortion case, he was granted bail by a court in Jalandhar on Sept 22 last year.
