237 Punjab needs jobs not
golf course project
230 Acres of Panchayat’s
land for a golf course project- violation of
“The Punjab Village Common Land (Regulations)
Rules 1964”

Congress party strongly
opposes the illegitimate and unconstitutional
move of the feudal Chief Minister to gift prime
230 Acres of Panchayat land belonging to 11
Panchayats around Mullanpur to DLF Company for a
golf course project. This move is a clear
violation of “ The Punjab Village Common Land
(Regulations) Rules 1964” which has been
purposely diluted by the SAD-BJP govt. to lease
out the said land for 33 years to DLF for a
profit making commercial venture.
The Congress lambasts the
state govt. that while the people of Punjab are
unable to get basic amenities such as education,
health services, safe drinking water the feudal
and aristocratic rulers like Badal are going
ahead with luxurious projects like golf courses,
five star hotels in Bathinda and cricket
stadiums. The state is facing a severe financial
crunch with over Rs 65000 crores as debt, our
18397 govt. schools and 229 govt. hospitals are
in shambles, lac of youth are unemployed and
farmers are committing suicides with a colossal
Rs 35000 crore debt but yet the Badal’s
want to promote golf in Punjab. Can any resident
of these 11 Panchayats dream to play golf in
such like projects?
This move to lease 230
Acres of land to DLF smacks of corruption and is
definitely not in the interest of the people of
these 11 Panchayats or Punjab. It is also
shocking to learn that the minutes of the
empowered committee meeting chaired by CM
Parkash Singh Badal on Feb. 23 were kept a
closely guarded secret in order to quietly
facilitate the transfer of this prime land.
The Congress party opposes
tooth and nail such a shady deal and demands
that state govt. immediately scrap this proposal
to throw away such costly land to DLF under the
garb of mega projects. The Congress also urges
the Chief Justice of Punjab and Haryana High
Court to intervene in the matter and take suo
moto cognizance of this highly unconstitutional
move of the state govt.
