Chautala embarrasses SAD
Amritsar, February 1
In a major embarrassment to the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD), Mr Om Parkash Chautala, former Chief Minister of Haryana who has come here as a star campaigner for the SAD-BJP combine, has said Chandigarh belongs to Haryana.
The SAD has been fighting for the transfer of Chandigarh and other left-out Punjabi speaking areas since the reorganisation of the state on November 1, 1966. These demands are included in the Anandpur Sahib resolution of 1973.
“Chandigarh is indisputably of Haryana and the inter-state river waters dispute between Punjab and Haryana has to be resolved by the leaders of both states. If they fail to resolve the matter amicably, then the option of court is open to settle the long-pending issue”, said Mr Chautala while talking to mediapersons here today. — TNS Active member
