Mann said that the Khudian family is a reputed family of Malwa and this family has a good influence in Muktsar, Faridkot and Bathinda districts along with whole of Punjab. He said Gurmeet Khudian’s father Jagdev Singh Khudian has been a member of Lok Sabha from Faridkot and is highly regarded by the people of Punjab.
