Chandigarh: Punjab Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh on Tuesday announced that he would lead a rally dharna of MLAs at Delhi’s Raj Ghat on Wednesday to highlight the state’s power and critical essential supplies situation due to the centre’s adamant refusal to allow movement of goods trains.

The Chandigarh CM will stage a dharna on Wednesday in protest of the decline meeting with President Ram Nath Kovind on Tuesday. Since section 144 has been imposed in Delhi, MLAs will go from Punjab Bhavan to the Samadhi of the Father of the Nation in batches of four only, with the CM leading the first one at 10.30am. Amarinder Singh also once again urged MLAs of other Punjab parties to join the dharnas in the interest of the state, which was facing a dire situation of the last private power plants (GVK), shut operations on Tuesday due to no coal supply. Two Lok Insaaf Party MLAs will also join the Congress sit- in at Raj Ghat.
