Addressing the issue of Adampur Airport’s naming, Jakhar said Prime Minister Narendra Modi had already announced in 2024 that the airport would be named after Sri Guru Ravidas Ji, keeping in mind the sentiments of the people of Punjab.
He alleged that the chief minister was trying to politicise an issue that had already been decided and officially announced.
It needs to be mentioned that the Punjab CM Wednesday had posted on X that the Adampur airport be named after Sri Guru Ravidas.
Jakhar maintained that had the chief minister raised any new demand genuinely in the interest of Punjab, he would have supported it even beyond party lines.
“But by raising a demand that has already been fulfilled, it is unclear what the chief minister is trying to prove,” he said.
