Ludhiana: A day after MLA Simarjit Singh Bains , a member of newly formed Awaaz-e-Punjab, was evicted from the state assembly, he accused the Union government of illegally allocating water of Punjab rivers to Rajasthan in January 1955.Also a leader of Team Insaaf, Bains on Saturday termed the distribution of water as unconstitutional. He said Punjab should recover Rs 15.3 lakh crores from Rajasthan.Addressing a press conference of Saturday, Bains said in 1955, when Jawahar Lal Nehru was the Prime Minister, it was decided that the water of Ravi and Beas be given to Rajasthan even though both the rivers are not inter-state rivers and the water belonged to Punjab only. Further he said Rajasthan is non-riparian state and Punjab's water cannot be given to Rajasthan.Further he said even after the water was given to Rajasthan, it was decided that Punjab can take allocation cost including cost of storage and others from Rajasthan, but Punjab failed to do the same for unknown reasons.Further he said at the time when the Union government formed a committee for the distribution of water of Narmada river from Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh , the committee cancelled the application of Rajasthan stating it as non-riparian state. But the desert state is enjoying free water from Punjab without paying any cost especially when Punjab is providing huge power subsidy to its farmers to fetch ground water though tubewells.Bains said the total cost which is to be recovered from Rajasthan is around Rs 15.3 lakh crores. He has also written to the speaker of the legislative assembly saying that Punjab should recover the amount from Rajasthan.
