Rajasthan urges Punjab to release more water [1]

The Rajasthan Government on Thursday stepped up its efforts to get maximum water from Bhakra and Pong dams in Punjab, in view of the threat by the Kisan Mazdoor Vyapari Sangharsh Samiti to launch an agitation from Friday in Sri Ganganagar and adjoining areas, if sufficient water for irrigation was not made available from the Indira Gandhi Canal.
