HC asks National Hydrology Institute to find solution
The division bench of Punjab and Haryana High Court has directed the National Institute of Hydrology, to propose solutions to the water woes of Sukhna Lake.
The Bench of Acting Chief Justice Jasbir Singh and Justice T.S. Dhindsa also asked the institute to study the feasibility of diverting the flow of water from Patiala-Ki-Rao or Ghaggar River into the Sukhna Lake. The directions came after Kaushal said water could not reach the Sukhna Lake from the catchment area due to deficient rain. Meanwhile, the bench also refused to vacate the stay on the construction in catchment area of Sukhna Lake.
