Slamming the Centre for directing the Punjab government for importing coal through rail-ship-rail (RSR) formula rather than direct mode, AAP on Wednesday termed it an illogical decision and said it will put three times more financial burden on the state.
Addressing a press conference here at the party’s headquarter on Wednesday, state chief spokesperson Malvinder Singh Kang said that the decision of Ministry of Power to ask Punjab to lift its domestic coal requirement through rail-ship-rail mode, has exposed the BJP-led Centre’s anti-Punjab face once again.
Kang accused the BJP of protecting the interests of Adani group. “Hence it took the decision to transport coal by Dahej/ Mundra port rather than adopting direct transport.
