Punjab has incurred property losses of up to Rs 7,000 crore on account of the violence by followers of the Dera Sachh Khand sect,
according to conservative estimates arrived at by the Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India (Assocham).
"Social tension in Punjab has caused a loss of Rs.6,000-Rs.7,000 crore of public property and pushed behind its investment prospects to a significant extent," Assocham said in a statement Tuesday.
Punjab has been wracked by widespread violence by followers of the Dera Sachh Khand sect protesting against the attack on religious leaders in a gurudwara in Vienna Sunday.
Jalandhar, Ludhiana, Hoshiarpur and Phagwara towns of Punjab continued to be under curfew for a second day Tuesday. But the curfew was being relaxed for two to four hours.
In this connection, Assocham secretary general D.S. Rawat appealed to the state administration "to immediately restore proper law and order in the state, especially in Jalandhar, Ludhiana, Phagwara and Ambala".
"Any delay in curbing the social tension might cause a great harm to the economy of Punjab," Assocham said.
Well,those who are indulging in this naked violence in Punjab for some thing that happened in Vienna should ponder over what they are doing.They are destroying their own property.A loss of Rs 7,000 crore is not a loss to the criminals who indulged in the the attack on religious leaders in the gurudwara in Vienna.It's a loss only to our Country,it's a big loss..
We have seen many instances of anti-nationals(those who indulge in destroying public property can only be called anti-nationals),indulging in blatant destruction of National property far too many times in recent past.
It looks like these anti-nationals were waiting for some thing to happen and this has become a trend..!!
It's high time we look towards effectively implementing laws to curb and eliminate these sort of mob violence and deal with such vandalism sternly.
When will our people,those who indulge in these kind of destruction of public property,realize that they are destroying their own property..!!
Why there is no self realization..mm..
This is after all our own Country,it's our responsibility to look after our Nation.The least we can do for our Motherland is not to self-destruct..!!
