November 17, 2016 | By Sikh Siyasat Bureau

Chandigarh: Two days after the Punjab cabinet announced to de-notify the land acquired for construction of controversial Satluj Yamuna Link canal, the Haryana government today moved to the Supreme Court of India (SCI) seeking status quo.

The SCI is likely to hear Haryana’s plea on Monday (Nov. 21), reports news agency ANI in one of its Tweets.

Notably, the Punjab state assembly has passed a bill to de-notify the SYL in last assembly session but the bill was not signed by the governor but the ruling party supporters had started levelling the under-constructed portion of the controversial canal in Punjab. At that time too, Haryana government had moved to the SCI seeking status quo order, which was granted by India’s apex court.
