Chandigarh, July 18

All-India Kisan Congress chief and Bholath MLA Sukhpal Singh Khaira today criticised AAP ministers for recommending to the Centre a new tribunal to resolve inter-state river water dispute.

Khaira said on July 9, Cabinet Ministers Harpal Singh Cheema and Harjot Bains, attended the Northern Zonal Council meeting chaired by Home Minister Amit Shah in Jaipur. Bains raised the issue of the Sutlej-Yamuna Link canal and asked for making new river tribunal, he said. “The tribunal is applicable to inter-state rivers and not to single-state rivers. Sutlej, Beas and Ravi are single-state rivers,” he said.
