Chandigarh: Chief Minister Amarinder Singh has announced the state's decision to offer government job to one family member of those farmers from Punjab who passed away while participating in the ongoing agitation in Delhi.
"I have received a report that 76 farmers have passed away during the protest against three farm laws. Today, I announce that we'll provide govt job to one family member of those from Punjab who die in agitation at Delhi borders," Amarinder Singh said.
"Is there a Constitution in this country? Agriculture is a state subject under Schedule 7.Why did Centre change it without discussion in Parliament? They passed it in Lok Sabha as they'd more members. In Rajya Sabha, it was passed in chaos as they sensed things can go wrong," he was quoted saying by media on Friday.
