according step-motherly treatment to Punjab and not securing justice to it on the river water issue but kept quite against the Centre's BJP government for the last three years.

He recently claimed to be ready to make highest possible sacrifice for Punjab waters but he continued to enjoy power for ten years, said Mann.

Had he any affinity for Punjab, he would have severed ties with the BJP by now and making his much-promised highest sacrifice, would have withdrawn his daughter-in-law from Modi cabinet in protest to the injustice meted out to to Punjab, said Mann.

Mann said when Congress came to power in Haryana in 1982, erstwhile Prime Minister Indira Gandhi came to lay foundation stone of the controversial canal, while Capt Amarinder Singh who was MP from Patiala did not only attend the function at Kapoori but also carried a spade made of silver to dig earth.

Had the Captain been sincere for Punjab, he would have quit Congress, said Mann adding both Singh and Badal worked against the people of Punjab and are now trying to prove they are their biggest saviours.

Mann said SAD had supported INLD in the 2014 assembly elections in Haryana and the friendship between Chautala and Badal families was not a secret.

He said by raking up the SYL issue these parties were only befooling the people of Punjab and Haryana.

He said they were raising the canal issue at a time when the Supreme Court is hearing the case and an atmosphere of mistrust was being created between Punjab and Haryana.

He appealed to people of both the states not to be misled by the motivated actions of SAD and INLD.
