Punjab BJP celebrated the withdrawal of the land pooling policy, declaring it a triumph for farmers and laborers. Working President Ashwani Sharma attributed the reversal to the pressure exerted by the party's persistent protests against the policy.
Sharma criticized AAP leaders, claiming they manipulated the policy to exploit Punjab while operating from Delhi. Efforts to acquire no land without a fight culminated in this significant rollback.
The annulment followed the Punjab and Haryana High Court's interim stay, emphasizing hasty implementation without socio-environmental considerations. The government's reversal promises to annul any actions under the policy.
