AAP MP Malvinder Singh Kang Demands \u20b950,000 Crore Special Flood Relief Package in Parliament; Accuses BJP Government of Discrimination<\/p>\n<p>The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has exposed the gross neglect and discrimination by the Centre\u2019s BJP government in Parliament following the devastating floods in Punjab. AAP MP Malvinder Singh Kang raised the issue of massive losses in Punjab during Wednesday\u2019s Lok Sabha session and demanded the BJP-led Central government immediately release a special relief package of \u20b950,000 crore for flood-affected areas.<\/p>\n<p>The Anandpur Sahib MP directly targeted the Centre\u2019s Modi government, alleging that 2,500 villages across six districts severely affected by floods have not received a single rupee from the Centre even after two months.<\/p>\n<p>The MP informed the House that catastrophic floods a few months ago completely devastated approximately 2,500 villages in Punjab and destroyed crops across more than 5 lakh acres. He emphasized that the border districts were worst hit, reminding the House that these are the same districts whose people fought shoulder-to-shoulder with the Indian Army during \u2018Operation Sandoor.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Expressing his anguish, Kang said that the Prime Minister and various Union Ministers visited Punjab after the floods, but even after two months, no financial assistance has been provided to help people in these six districts get back on their feet.<\/p>\n<p>Taking aim at the Centre\u2019s Modi government, he questioned the double standards: \u201cWhen there are elections in Bihar, you auction packages of \u20b950,000 crore, \u20b970,000 crore and even \u20b990,000 crore.\u201d He expressed outrage that Punjab, which made the greatest contribution to the nation\u2019s freedom struggle and filling the country\u2019s granaries, has been abandoned in times of crisis. He called it \u201cthe biggest discrimination\u201d and held the BJP government responsible.<\/p>\n<p>MP Kang also criticized the Haryana and Rajasthan governments, which demand Punjab\u2019s share of water but failed to stand with Punjab during this disaster.<\/p>\n<p>The AAP MP urged the BJP government to immediately release a special package of \u20b950,000 crore. He said this amount is desperately needed for Punjab\u2019s flood-affected people whose homes, hospitals, roads and entire infrastructure have been destroyed, and whose 5 lakh acres of crops have been ruined.<\/p>\n<p>He clarified that these funds are specifically needed to help people in border areas get back on their feet and rehabilitate themselves &#8211; people who fight for the nation. The AAP government will continue fighting against this injustice and the Centre must give Punjab its rightful due.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Punjab News: Gross Injustice to Punjab!
