CHANDIGARH: Criticising the Aam Aadmi Party’s statement of operating their office from outside the Raj Bhawan in Chandigarh due to the refusal of land for their party office, leader of opposition in Punjab assembly Partap Singh Bajwa on Saturday said the AAP should have held protest demonstrations when the state’s legitimate rights on its river waters and its capital were under attack.
“Why doesn’t the AAP leadership in Punjab get agitated when the attempts are made to curtail Punjab’s rightful claims on river waters and Chandigarh? For the last couple of weeks, the plan is being made to provide 10 acre land to Haryana to build a Vidhan Sabha in Chandigarh, but Punjab chief minister Bhagwant Mann and his cabinet did not go any further than opposing the same in the media statements,” Bajwa added.
