DW BUREAU / Chandigarh The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) today asked chief minister Bhagwant Mann to tell Punjabis what stand he would take on the Satluj Yamuna Link (SYL) canal in his meeting with his Haryana counterpart tomorrow, saying this was of utmost importance as there were clear cut indications that he would betray Punjab's interests at the instance of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Convener Arvind Kejriwal. In a statement here, former minister Dr Daljit Singh Cheema said the very fact that the chief minister had not explained his stand to Punjabis nor held an All Party meeting to firm up one stand on this issue indicated that he was under pressure from Arvind Kejriwal to arrive at a compromise with the Haryana government to help AAP gain politically in Haryana. Asserting that Punjabis would not tolerate any such compromise, Dr Daljit Cheema asked the chief minister to clearly state that Punjab did not have a single drop of water to spare nor any land to construct the SYL canal before attending the meeting on this issue with Haryana chief minister Manohar Lal Khattar. He said the chief minister should also make it clear that Punjab had exclusive rights to its River waters being a Riparian State and that Haryana as a non-riparian State did not have any locus standi on this issue. The SAD leader also asked the chief minister to state that if Punjab had suffered losses in court on this issue it was because former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi had forced then chief minister Darbara Singh to withdraw the State's petition challenging Section 78 and 80 of the Punjab Reorganization Act (editor@dailyworld.in)
