Chandigarh, Nov 4, 2023 (Yes Punjab News)
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has hit back at the statements of BJP leaders regarding stubble burning and air pollution caused by it.
The Aam Aadmi Party Punjab spokesperson Neel Garg targeted the BJP government of Haryana through the latest Air Quality Index (AQI) data and said that 20 districts of Haryana are among the 52 most polluted districts of the country.
He said that pollution in Haryana has reached dangerous levels and Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar is doing politics instead of making his state pollution free. He said that instead of doing politics, BJP should focus on controlling pollution in Haryana.
At the same time, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has taken effective steps to stop stubble burning, due to which the number of stubble burning cases in Punjab has reduced significantly. The Mann government arranged machines to handle the stubble and make biofuel from the stubble and continuously motivated people not to burn the stubble.
Advising the Haryana government, Neel Garg said that Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar should also take significant steps like Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann to control pollution in Haryana.
