Punjab Package Deal Properties (Disposal) Act amended

CHANDIGARH, MARCH 18
In order to secure the interests of those farmers who have been in continuous cultivating possession of evacuee land since Kharif 2000, the Punjab Cabinet today gave approval to amend Punjab Package Deal Properties (Disposal) Act, 1976 by inserting a new section 4 (1) A after second proviso of section 4 (1).
A decision to this effect was taken by the Cabinet in its meeting held under the chairmanship of Punjab Chief Minister Mr. Parkash Singh Badal here at Punjab Bhawan, this evening.
Disclosing this here today a spokesperson of Chief Minister’s Office said that this amendment, which would be applicable retrospectively, would not only benefit those who were in unauthorised continuous possession of evacuee land but would also safeguard 9234 occupants in 15 districts who were allotted this land under old policy under section 4 (1) C of the Act issued on dated 26/09/2007. A large number of farmers would be immensely benefitted under this decision.
In a big reprieve to the pea cultivators of state, the Punjab Cabinet today gave approval to release a sum of Rs 1.56 crore as compensation to the farmers in lieu of loss suffered by them due to inferior supply of pea seeds by the National Seed Corporation (NSC). This decision would benefit as many as 937 pea cultivators of the state, who had incurred huge loss due to supply of 73020 kilograms of spurious pea seed by NSC, after revealed in a special survey conducted by the Revenue Department. As per report 1625.85 acres of pea crop has been perished due to supply of sub standard pea seeds.
Likewise, the Cabinet also gave nod to establish offices of District Program Officers of Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) at Pathankot and Fazilka by creating two posts each of District Program Officer, Superintendent, Data Assistant/ Assistant, Accountant/ Clerk, Clerk/ Data Entry Operator and Peon in these districts.

The Cabinet also decided to give approval for conversion of “The Punjab Development of Trade, Commerce and Industries (Validation) Ordinance, 2015” into an Act by tabling a Bill during the ongoing Budget session of the Punjab Vidhan Sabha. The Ordinance envisages for imposing tax on goods brought in the state to be kept in a fund for developing industrial estates, focal points and industrial clusters, providing financial aids, grants, incentives and subsidies to financial, industrial and commercial units, creating infrastructure for supply of water and power, creating, developing and maintaining other infrastructure, providing amenities to public in local area, implementing social welfare schemes for public in local area and any other purpose connected with development of trade, commerce and industry or for facilities relating thereto which the state government may specify. The rate of tax and the goods on which such tax was to be imposed would be specified by the government from time to time.

SYL construction under no circumstances: Badal

CHANDIGARH, MARCH 18
In a historic move, the Punjab Vidhan Sabha today unanimously adopted a resolution moved by Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal declaring that "the SYL canal will not be allowed to be constructed at any cost and under any circumstances."
Moving the Resolution, the Chief Minister declared in the most emphatic and categorical terms that he "would rather make the supreme sacrifice than allow the SYL canal to be built as it deprives the people of Punjab of their legitimate rights over their river waters, in brazen defiance of the nationally and internationally accepted Riparian Principle."
Committing his party and government to the harshest measures needed in order to protect the interests of the people of Punjab on this, Mr. Badal appealed to Punjabis to prepare themselves for tough battles ahead for the purpose.
The Resolution which appeared to have come in the wake of   the Supreme Court order of yesterday asking the state to maintain status quo on the process of resumption of SYL lands by the original owners of the concerned lands spoke of the long trail of struggles and sacrifices by the people of Punjab on the river water issue.
Mr. Badal was in his element and minced no words while declaring forcefully and in most categorical terms that he would   "protect and safeguard with all the might the river waters of the state at all costs.  We will not accept under any circumstances any decision coming from   any quarters which  seeks to deprive its people of their  legitimate rights over Punjab's river waters  by violating the nationally and internationally accepted Riparian Principle," roared Mr. Badal.
Tracing the history of long struggles waged by his party, the SAD, and Punjabis in general, Mr. Badal said he and the SAD-BJP government had neither accepted in the past nor would accept now nor ever in future any decision taken by anyone to take away our vital river waters from Punjab in brazen violation of our rights under the Riparian Principle."
The Chief Minister said that there was a wide consensus that Punjab did not have even a single drop of water to spare for any other state. In view of that, there never had been any need nor was there one now to construct the SYL canal. "Neither is it even possible to do so.  I wish to state in most categorical terms that we will not allow this canal to be constructed at any cost," declared a visibly moved Chief Minister.

Supreme Court stays SYL denotification Bill on SYL

CHANDIGARH, MARCH 17
The Supreme Court today stayed the Bill passed by Punjab Assembly about denotification of land of Sutlej Yamuna Link (SYL) Canal.
This was stated by Haryana Chief Minister Mr Manohar Lal during ongoing budget session of Haryana Vidhan Sabha here today.
He said that the Court has also declared the canal as a case property. Punjab Director General of Police, Chief Secretary and Punjab Home Secretary as well as Union Home Secretary will be personally responsible for any breach or other damage of the SYL Canal in Punjab.
Meanwhile, Haryana Chief Minister said that he has also spoken to Punjab Chief Minister, Mr Parkash Singh Badal and expressed his displeasure over the Punjab Government’s move on the SYL canal.
While pointing out that the Haryana government has shown strong resentment over Punjab Government’s unconstitutional move on the issue of SYL canal, he said that he has returned the cheque in original to Punjab government which was sent to Haryana Government yesterday.
"We are constantly in touch with Centre on SYL issue. I have spoken to Prime Minister, Mr Narendra Modi. Our all Members of Parliament have also met the Prime Minister on this issue" added Mr Manohar Lal.
He said that as the move of Punjab government on SYL canal is unconstitutional, he has requested Punjab Governor Mr Kaptan Singh Solanki not to sign the Bill.

Brahm Mohindra demands resignation of Governor

CHANDIGARH, MARCH 17
Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee Vice President and MLA Brahm Mohindra has demanded resignation of Punjab Governor Kaptan Singh Solanki by accusing the latter for failing to protect the interests of Punjab.
At the same time, he also accused the Prime Minister Narendra Modi for playing politics with Punjab by not providing a full fledged governor to State.Issuing a press release here, the five-time MLA Mohindra said that it is ironic that in less than a week after addressing the Punjab Assembly in which Governor Solanki highlighted that Punjab has no extra water, he has taken a u-turn and as Governor of Haryana demanded water share from Punjab.
“By working as Governor of Punjab and Haryana, Solanki has lowered the esteem of this coveted post, as his governor address in Assemblies of Punjab and Haryana respectively, was self contradictory”, said Mohindra.  
He said that the governor is not doing justice to his job, as latter is in dilemma as he hold dual charge of neghbouring states, which are working to protect their interests on water issue.
Taking up issue in delay in signing the bill passed by the Punjab Legislators,  Mohindra said that the Congress has lost faith in governor, as it seems that he is working against Punjab at the behest of Bharatiya Janta Party and PM Narendra Modi.
“PM has deliberately not appointed a separate governor for Punjab, as he wants to protect the interests of Haryana through Solanki”, he said demanding immediate removal of Solanki and appointment of new governor.  He said, in order to restore the pristine glory of post of governor,  Solanki himself should give up his job of Punjab Governor, as his dual character for Punjab and Haryana, is lowering the image of post of governor.

Punjab should safeguard SYL being Haryana property: Vij

CHANDIGARH, MARCH 16
Haryana Health Minister Anil Vij said that the Sutlej Yamuna Link (SYL) canal being the property of Haryana state, the Punjab Government should ensure the safety of property of the other state.
Mr Vij was speaking at the press conference during the Haryana Vidhan Sabha Session today.
He said that if any state either directly or indirectly does not ensure safety of property of the other state, this would create lawlessness, which would not be good for the country, state and society. He said that the resolution passed by the Punjab Vidhan Sabha is unconstitutional and this has not yet taken any legal form. Despite this, filling up of SYL canal in Punjab area is completely illegal. For this, he would meet Central leadership and appeal to them to intervene in this matter. This matter is already under consideration of the Supreme Court. He said that the Government was hopeful to get justice in this regard, as the Supreme Court had earlier also given hard remarks on Kaveri issue.
The Health Minister also condemned the statement of Chief Minister of Delhi, Mr Arvind Kejriwal who termed the decision of Punjab Government on SYL canal as right. He said that the Chief Minister should understand what would happen to Delhi, if Haryana too behaves like Punjab with Delhi on its water share. He said that Delhi has nothing of its own including electricity, water, milk, fruits and vegetables. This kind of small mindedness is not in the interest of the country. He said that for us vote bank comes later, country comes first. He said that our party would not let the federal structure wear out, and for this we are prepared to go to any extent.
Mr Vij said that leaders in the country are blinded by the greed of vote bank. He said that there are some forces which want to divide the country into estates like earlier, but we would not let this happen. In our country all provinces are dependent on each other. If every state started thinking selfishly, who would think of the country and all the sacrifices made by the heroes would be of no use, he added.
