We will not beg before the Centre for flood relief: Punjab CM
The CM said the day is not far away when due to concerted efforts of the state government Punjab will emerge as a front ranking state across the globe.
The CM said the day is not far away when due to concerted efforts of the state government Punjab will emerge as a front ranking state across the globe.
Badal said this government sponsored union “is Bhagwant Mann’s latest and desperate act of shameless interference in the affairs of a religion of which he does not observe even the basic norms."
The SGPC's agreement with GNext Media - PTC channel - for exclusive telecast of Gurbani from the Sikh shrine will expire on July 23.
Bikram Singh Majithia asked the Congress to stop “theatrical” visits to the state governor to redress the flood victims’ grievances, instead approach its own CM, Mann.
The CM also sought access to custom databases so that suspected containers coming from other countries may be scrutinised from a drug smuggling point of view.
Banwari Lal Purohit wrote to CM Mann two days after he urged him to give his consent to an amendment that seeks to end the monopoly of the Badal family over telecast of sacred Gurbani from Golden Temple.
Mann, who visited village Nihala Lavera in Ferozepur to oversee flood relief operations, said a special girdawari will be conducted to ascertain the loss of crops, houses and others due to heavy rainfall in the state.
The Punjab BJP chief called it an abjectly dismal and callous response to the grievous flood situation in the state by the state government despite timely IMD alerts.
Three teams of NDRF have been deployed in Mohali, five in Rupnagar, two in Patiala, one each in Jalandhar, Fatehgarh Sahib, Sangrur and SBS Nagar.
Mann, however, assured people of the state that the state government was making every effort to minimise the loss to them.
