Chandigarh: Three members of Awaaz-e-Punjab on Friday said they will attend the special session of the Punjab Assembly on November 16 on the Sutlej-Yamuna Link (SYL) canal issue and thereafter resign as MLAs.
Ludhiana MLA brothers Simarjit and Balwinder Singh Bains, and Jalandhar Cantt MLA Pargat Singh who are members of cricketer-turned-politician Navjot Singh Sidhu’s front on Friday met Assembly Speaker Charanjit Singh Atwal and demanded a private resolution on the SYL canal water sharing issue. “Today we met the Speaker and demanded that a private resolution in the special session on November 16 be allowed for debate on the emergent issue,” MLA Atam Nagar Simarjit Singh Bains said.
