Chandigarh, Sept. 27 -- Chief minister Bhagwant Singh Mann on Friday slammed the opposition for playing politics over floods and said that the people of the state will never forgive these 'insensitive and opportunist' politicians. Taking part in discussion during a special session, the CM said that it is unfortunate that instead of giving a healing touch during the floods, these so-called experienced politicians of the state are 'spitting venom' against the government. "Politicising this issue for the sake of vested political interests is unwarranted and undesirable. This special session was convened to discuss the rehabilitation of the state in the aftermath of floods, but due to the myopic mindset of these leaders, it has been reduced to a platform of criticism," he said. Replying to the charges levelled by LoP Partap Singh Bajwa, the CM said, "We have been vehemently pleading for the desilting of Bhakra and Pong Dam, but unfortunately, it has not taken place. We conducted desilting of the Ghaggar this year, and despite excess water, no flood was reported." The CM also slammed the IMD for 'unreliable' predictions. "All the forecasts made by this agency were irrelevant and far from the truth. Single day rainfall was recorded 1961% more than the prediction made by this agency," Mann said. He said Ranjit Sagar Dam received 65.3% more water than in 2023, Pong Dam received 60.4% more water, while Bhakra Dam recorded 2.65% more water inflow. Mann said the Rangla Punjab fund has been started, as there were certain limitations in the Chief Minister's Relief Fund. "Funds through CSR cannot be contributed to it. Even MPs can't contribute more than 20 lakh in the CM Relief Fund," Mann said....
