The National Green Tribunal has issued a notice to the Punjab government on the petition of Navjot Singh Sidhu regarding illegal mining in Ropar, Punjab and has set a date of March 11 for the hearing in this case.

Navjot Sidhu attacked the Bhagwant Mann government in the press conference and said that this matter is only a matter of a small area in Ropar but the situation is bad in the whole of Punjab.

Navjot Singh said that illegal mining is going on at the behest of the government and they are not going to back down and will continue their fight against it.

Sidhu said that illegal mining is a double-edged sword, which is not only damaging the environment but also the state's economy.

Sidhu said that Arvind Kejriwal and Bhagwant Mann used to say before the elections that 20 thousand crore rupees earned from sand mining will be given to women every year, but it has been 2 years since the government was formed, so far only 300 crore rupees have been deposited in that account. are He said that ministers, officers and police are involved in the black business of illegal mining in the state.
