Capt Amarinder Singh to ‘blame’ for power crisis

Mohali, July 3

Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) senior vice-president Prem Singh Chandumajra today blamed Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh for the prolonged power cuts in Punjab.

Chandumajra said there was an outcry all over the state due to power cuts and before the start of paddy season, no proper arrangements were made by the Congress government for supplying power. He said the Chief Minister was running away from his responsibilities.

Chandumajra said after reading the headlines of an early monsoon, the Captain government left the farmers and people of the state to fend for themselves. However, due to non-arrival of monsoon, the power supply arrangements made by the Chief Minister were exposed. — TNS
