Navjeet Sandhu, 22, was fatally stabbed with a knife by a fellow Indian student when he attempted to intervene in a fight between some Indian students in Melbourne, Australia.
In December 2023, Budhiraja had been declared as a proclaimed offender by the Chief Judicial Magistrate after warrants against him were returned unexecuted.
Divyanshu Budhiraja is the Haryana Youth Congress President and the party's candidate against former chief minister and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Manohar Lal Khattar in the Lok Sabha elections 2024.
According to senior Congress leaders, the party will come out with the list of candidates before April 29 when the filing of nominations in the state begins.
