Nawanshahr (Jatinderpal Singh Kaler, November 11):- Senior Aam Aadmi Party leader and Nawanshahr constituency in-charge Robby Kang hit back at the BJP, saying that the party must stop holding Punjab's farmers responsible for its own failures.
Robby Kang said that the Central BJP government blaming Punjab's farmers to evade responsibility for the increased pollution in Delhi caused by firecrackers on Diwali night was highly condemnable. He said that instead of targeting Punjab to conceal its failures, the Central Government should understand and fulfil its own responsibility.
He said that every year, whenever pollution levels rise, the BJP blames Punjab's farmers and washes its hands of the issue, while paying no attention to the causes of pollution within Delhi itself. He demanded that the unnecessary vilification of Punjab's farmers must stop and that the Central Government should take concrete steps to control pollution in Delhi.
