Fatehgarh Sahib : The Punjab Congress will continue to take up issues concerning various sections of the society and take this struggle to its logical conclusion. This was stated by Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee (PPCC) chief Partap Singh Bajwa on Sunday.
He said that the dharna announced by the associations of industry, which was to be staged in front of the residence of Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal on September 29, has now been postponed on the request of the associations of industry from Mandi Gobindgarh.
He said that the associations had conveyed that they were given assurance by the state government that their demands would be fulfilled.
“It is the solemn commitment of the Punjab Congress to the people in the state to continue to fight for the issues concerning them at every level. This struggle would be intensified in the coming days.
“This is now our single point agenda as people are reeling under politics of vendetta unleashed against them. This state government has failed on every front and backtracked from the promises,” he said.
However, there was no change in the programme by the Kisan cell of the party to stage demonstrations at the district headquarters on Monday.
He reminded Badal about another grave injustice done against Punjab by the earlier NDA government by announcing tax concessions for neighbouring hilly states.
He asked Badal to get this undone by taking up the issue of industrial concessions to the neighbouring states with the Narendra Modi government.
He asserted that Badal had been misleading people all these years by putting the blame on the UPA government, while this decision was actually taken by the Atal Behari Vajpayee government.
