💨 Abstract

Jagtar Singh Hawara, serving a life term for the 1995 killing of Punjab's former chief minister Beant Singh, has pleaded in the Supreme Court for his transfer from Delhi's Tihar jail to any prison in Punjab. The Punjab government opposed this, stating that Hawara was previously lodged in a Chandigarh jail and has no claim to be transferred to a Punjab prison.
