Chandigarh, Dec 12 (IANS) The BJP in Punjab on Sunday supported the demand of people belonging to the general category for the formation of a general category commission and a welfare board.
They have been staging protests against the government over their demands since November 26.
BJP leader Vineet Joshi said the two demands of the people of the general category are justified. "The formation of a commission and welfare board for the general class will not cause any harm to people of any other category, but will definitely help every person of the general class."
"Also, the commission and the welfare board will listen to the demands and complaints of the general class students, employees, farmers, traders, shopkeepers and the vendors," Joshi said in a statement.
He said the BJP governments have already formed such commissions in Gujarat in 2017, in Madhya Pradesh in September 2021 and in Himachal Pradesh two days ago.
"If the BJP government will be voted to power in Punjab in the 2022 assembly elections, the party will constitute the general category commission and general category welfare board on priority," added the BJP leader.
As per its reports, between April 2020 and April 2021, NO2 pollution has increased in all the eight capitals of states studied -- Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai, Kolkata, Jaipur and Lucknow.
As new variants are formed, it causes change to the spike protein and the structure undergoes a complete change -- a reason why it can render the current vaccines, originally designed to target the protein, ineffective.
The two arrested soldiers include Sepoy Harpreet Singh (23), who hails from Cheecha village in Amritsar, and was posted in J&K's Anantnag. He joined the Army in 2017 and belongs to 19 Rashtriya Rifles.
Amid escalating infighting in Punjab Congress, Chief Minister Amarinder Singh is likely to meet Sonia Gandhi and apprise his side of the story to the interim Congress President.
