Amritsar Rural police arrested Ravinder Jain and Rishabh Jain from the national capital for supplying raw material to one of the main accused, Sahib Singh, Punjab DGP Gaurav Yadav said, adding that an FIR has been registered under provisions of the BNS and the Excise Act, and further probe is underway.
