Review decision to shift 42 villages from Batala: Congress
The state government’s decision to shift 42 villages from Batala block to Qadian block smacks of “ulterior motives”.
This was asserted by Jaskaran Singh Kahlon, Punjab Congress spokesperson from Batala assembly seat.
“The government has shifted these villages under the guise of creating new zones for the impending Zila Parishad and Block samiti elections. However, the government’s motive reeks of cheap politics,” he said.
Kahlon said villagers will be facing a lot of problems. “This decision has triggered protests in villages. I demand that the government should immediately revoke its decision,” he said.
