Sengkang GRC MPs He Ting Ru and Jamus Lim, as well as former Hougang MP Png Eng Huat, have been tasked to determine if Mr Singh has contravened the WP Constitution, following his court conviction for lying under oath, party members told The Straits Times.

Ms He is treasurer of the party, while Associate Professor Lim is deputy head of policy research. The second-term MPs are both also members of the party's central executive committee (CEC).

Meanwhile, Mr Png, who stepped down from electoral politics in 2020, was MP for Hougang constituency for eight years, and was also previously on the party’s top decision-making body until 2022.
