SYL: Bains asks parties to join hands

Ludhiana : Lok Insaaf Party (LIP) legislator Simarjit Singh Bains said here today that various parties should come together on the SYL issue and ensure that Punjab was not forced to share its water. Addressing a press conference, Bains said the Congress government should call an emergency session of the Vidhan Sabha and table a Bill that must be passed unanimously. “Once the Bill reaches the President, he would take a call on whether Sections 76, 77 and 78 of the Reorganisation Act, 1966, are unconstitutional as far as Punjab is concerned,” said Bains. The legislator added that former CM Parkash Singh Badal should ask his daughter-in-law Harsimrat Badal to resign from the Union Cabinet as a mark of protest on SYL. “Not a drop of Punjab’s water will be shared with any state. I am ready to face police lathis in the state’s interests,” he added.
