Former Haryana chief minister and Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) supreme leader Om Prakash Chautala, who is lodged in Delhi’s Tihar jail, is likely to be transferred to the Bathinda district prison in Punjab, according to the government sources.Punjab CM Parkash Singh Badal and he are close friends with strong family relations. Even though in Punjab, Badal’s Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) is an ally of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), in neighbouring Haryana, it supports the INLD in the elections. In the 2014 assembly contests, Badal and his son, SAD president Sukhbir Singh Badal, had put the BJP in a tight corner in Haryana by canvassing for the INLD candidates.
