Former Punjab chief minister Charanjit Singh Channi's nephew Bhupinder Singh alias Honey was arrested on February 3 in the sand mining case. He is currently in judicial custody and has applied for bail.
Earlier, Tewari, who is the Lok Sabha MP from Punjab's Anandpur Sahib, exchanged sharp words with Charanjit Singh Channi last month after his controversial 'bhaiya' remarks against migrants entering Punjab.
Former Punjab Congress chief Sunil Jakhar said he did not want to accuse anyone of anything but it is “disappointing to see the kind of sycophancy played out in CWC yesterday.”
