Higher Education and Water Supply Minister Razia Sultana had to face tough questions from her own party MLAs in the Punjab Assembly Friday as the latter lamented that no work was being done to provide drinking water to Kandi areas of Hoshiarpur district.
Urmar MLA Sangat Singh Gilzian and Sham Chaurasi MLA Pawan Kumar Adia, who raised the matter during Question Hour, claimed that contaminated water was causing cancer in the area, adding that if this trend continued, people would equate the rule of Congress with that of the Akalis.
