Badal flayed for no representation of state at Centre

SAS NAGAR, NOV 19: Congress leader Buta Singh today criticised Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal for his failure to have any representation in the Union Ministry.

Addressing mediapersons here today, the former minister said this was due to the quot;selfishnessquot; of the Chief Minister. quot;If his son could not be a minister, nobody else could be,quot; he alleged, adding that the Punjab Government had failed on all fronts. quot;The state exchequer is virtually empty and the economic crisis in the state is getting worse day by day. This government is not a responsible government,quot; he said.
