Congress President Warring Says – ਪੰਜਾਬ Needs 25 Thousand Crores: Writes Letter to PM Regarding Flood Relief, Says – This is Not the Time for Politics.
In a letter to Prime ਮੰਤਰੀ Narendra Modi, ਪੰਜਾਬ Congress President Amarinder Singh Raja Warring voiced his dissatisfaction with the flood relief package.
ਲੋਕ had great expectations before to the Prime ਮੰਤਰੀ’s visit to ਪੰਜਾਬ on September 9, but Warring stated the relief package that was announced was disappointing and quite tiny.
“It was hoped that the Prime ਮੰਤਰੀ would apply balm to the wounds of the ਲੋਕ of ਪੰਜਾਬ after such a huge devastation,” he said. However, this did not occur. “This is not the time for politics,” Warring added.
Warring’s Demand: A 25 Thousand Crore Package for ਪੰਜਾਬ
Prime ਮੰਤਰੀ Modi has been urged by Warring to provide ਪੰਜਾਬ with a flood assistance package worth at least ₹25,000 crores. He said that a meagre flood relief package had been provided by the federal ਸਰਕਾਰ.
The Congress had previously called for ₹50,000 crores, but given the current circumstances, ₹25,000 crores in aid should be provided right away.
Warring claimed that the flood-affected population is suffering as a result of the Prime ਮੰਤਰੀ’s attempt to overthrow the state’s Aam Aadmi Party ਸਰਕਾਰ.
The ਲੋਕ of ਪੰਜਾਬ have high expectations of the Centre, he said, and decisions should be made that go beyond politics during this trying time.
