Bathinda, January 21
Padma Shri awardee and eco-activist Balbir Singh Seechewal today appealed to all political parties to make environment their Assembly poll agenda.
At a press meet here, he said it was a sad state of affairs that no party had discussed environmental issues before.
“Clean air is one of the basic human rights and we must work together to protect natural resources.” He said a group of environmentalists and religious leaders had formed the Punjab Vatavaran Chetna Lehar, which had prepared a “green poll manifesto” to safeguard the environment.
