“The AAP government in the apex court in which it expressed its willingness to construct the SYL canal but for pressure from opposition parties as well as difficulties in acquiring land for the canal which had been returned back to farmers by the erstwhile SAD government:
“A high level SAD delegation led by party president Sukhbir Singh Badal met the Governor: The delegation also highlighted the treachery of the AAP government in the apex court in which it expressed its willingness to construct the SYL canal but for pressure from opposition parties as well as difficulties in acquiring land for the canal which had been returned back to farmers by the erstwhile SAD government. “This contention is tantamount to backstabbing farmers”,
it said adding “it seems the AAP government failed to argue Punjab’s case convincingly. It also failed to stress the Riparian Principle by way of which Punjab has an inalienable right over the water flowing in its territory”
The delegation also detailed how Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal had announced that Haryana and Delhi should be given water through the SYL canal and how the Delhi government filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court in April 2016 asserting both Haryana and Delhi should be granted their share of water from the SYL canal.
“AAP has also promised to ensure water from the SYL reaches each and every corner of Haryana in case it forms the government in the State in 2024”. https://yespunjab.com/sad-
