Slams Delhi Govt on Munak Canal issue
AMN /
The Supreme Court today sought a status report in two days from Haryana government on the plea of Delhi government seeking resumption of water supply to the national capital.
Apex Court also issued notice to the Centre and Uttar Pradesh government on the plea of Delhi government which has also sought a direction for ensuring security on the barrages on Munak Canal in Haryana.
A bench headed by Chief Justice rapped Delhi government for approaching the apex court instead of resolving the issue at government-to-government level.
The counsel appearing for Haryana submitted that things are being taken into control and they are trying to ensure that water supply is resumed by today itself. The Delhi government had yesterday moved the apex court for urgent hearing on its plea seeking Centre’s intervention for uninterrupted supply of water from Munak Canal in Haryana.
