New Delhi/Chandigarh, June 26, 2024 (Yes Punjab News)
Alleging the BJP led centre government for working under political conspiracy to damage the financial interests of Punjab state,
Member Parliament from Sangrur Gurmeet Singh Meet Hayer has said that he will strongly raise the issues of not releasing Rural Development Fund (RDF) and Mandi Development Fund (MDF) around Rs.7000 crore and deliberately withholding funds for Punjab under National Health Mission,
Sarv Sikhiya Abhiyaan and other central schemes by the BJP led centre government in the current Parliament session.
While talking to the media here today, Meet Hayer said that he will raise his voice against the centre’s attack on financial rights of Punjab till the state gets justice.
On a question about the election of Lok Sabha Speaker Meet Hayer said that it had been a democratic tradition in India that while the speaker comes from the ruling alliance, the deputy speaker of Lok Sabha always belongs to the Opposition but the BJP is breaking this democratic tradition just to satisfy its ego.
To counter this anti-democratic step, the opposition parties emphasise to contest the election of Lok Sabha Speaker to save this rich democratic tradition.
The Sangrur MP said that the BJP is weakening the democratic institutes of the country and the opposition had taken the main issue of saving the Indian Constitution and democracy in recently held general elections to which the people of India had given a positive response.
“The People of Punjab have elected me for the Lok Sabha and it will be my primary duty to save the interests of State and to raise the strong voice against every step of centre that adversely affects our state of Punjab.” Vowed Meet Hayer.
