Chandigarh, Nov. 25 -- Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) chief Sukhbir Singh Badal on Monday said Punjab has an inalienable right over Chandigarh and that his party will not tolerate any attempt to "snatch" it from the state. In a statement issued after the party's core committee meeting here, he also demanded that Chandigarh be transferred to Punjab. "The latest move by the Centre to end Punjab's right to Chandigarh by making it a regular Union territory, attempts to end the democratic set-up in the Panjab University and take it under central control," Sukhbir said. Sukhbir's remarks came days after a bulletin of Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha listed a bill that proposes to bring Chandigarh under the ambit of Article 240 of the Constitution, which empowers the President to make regulations for the Union territory and legislate directly. He also said, "It's great that the entire country is paying tributes to Guru Teg Bahadur. But these tributes and functions will sound sincere only if governments at the Centre as well as in Bihar, Maharashtra, Delhi, Haryana and other states put a stop to their ongoing interference in Sikh religious affairs and attacks on religious institutions."HTC...
