The Shiromani Akali Dal today hit out at state Industry Minister Sham Sunder Arora for spreading lies about providing power at cheap rates to the industry and asked him to tell people why industrialists from the state were forced to meet UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.
In a statement today, SAD trade and industry wing president NK Sharma said it was shameful to see that instead of accepting failures of the Congress government on providing cheap and non-disruptive power to state industries, the minister was making tall claims of achievements. He asked him if he was not aware of forced power lockdown imposed on industry. He said the fact of the matter was that industrialists were a harried lot and were searching alternative sites to re-establish their units outside Punjab to save their business. — TNS
