SYL: Punjab will not give drop of additional water: Mann
Chandigarh: Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann on Thursday said that Punjab does not have a single drop of water to share with anyone. Other than what we are already giving to the other states, no additional water will be given, he asserted after chairing an emergency meeting of the Cabinet called this morning.
This assertion comes in wake of the developments in the SYL case at the Supreme Court of India on Wednesday, wherein the apex court has asked the Union of India to conduct the survey of the land meant for the construction of the SYL canal in Punjab to know how much work has been done. Punjab government has been asked to extend cooperation in the survey.
It may be mentioned that no formal agenda for the Cabinet meeting was circulated, but the meeting was called to discuss the SYL issue, and also to grant approval to the appointment of Gurminder Singh as the new Advocate General of Punjab.
