We oppose beating of old drum by Punjab CM
National Tele24 News
Chandigarh
Even after existence of 75 years and even
after being a UT for the last more than 50 years we re residents of Chandigarh
are facing the same old song every now and then .After going through the
documents and discussion done on record before creation of UT 1966 there is not
iota of any such arrangement. While making Chandigarh UT and temporary capitals
of two states meetings was held and on record arrangements were made for new
UT. After that the Punjab Reorganization Act 1966 came into existence. In all these
records and various other orders issued after wards there is no such orders. It
is sheer political move only and all these CM belonging to all political
parties always demand their share of Chandigarh without any responsibility. We
request Punjab CM to make public any document which supports his demand of
60:40 in case of deputations to Chandigarh UT. From the records available with
me it is observed that making of Chandigarh capital of two states was a
arrangement done in 1966. As such we the residents of Chandigarh aged about 75
years stake our claim on this UT and as and when any decision making meeting is
called to settle claims and counter claims the voice of Chandigarh should be
heard by Central Goyt. and till than present arrangement may be allowed to
continue. Just to reconfirm the documents and find out if there is anything at
all to support claims of the both states I have filed RTI Applications with
Central, Punjab, Haryana Govt. and UT Administration to put the details in
Public Domain for which our Second Innings Association will be organizing a
talk on “Save Chandigarh” by eminent residents of Chandigarh .
