DISTURBED BY REPORTS OF FARM FIRES, SAYS PAU V-C

LUDHIANA: PAU V-C Baldev Singh Dhillon took to social media on Saturday and said: “I am deeply anguished to learn that stubble burning incidents have increased in the state. The most disturbing aspect is that majority of stubble burning incidents were reported in the areas used for sowing paddy and maize,” said Dhillon.

He said people were already reeling under the Covid-19 pandemic and lockdown, setting fields on fire would compound the problem.
