Despite Stiff Opposition, BBMB Prepares to House CISF Personnel
The Bhakra Beas Management Board (BBMB) has decided to go ahead with preparations to house Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) personnel in its Nangal township, despite vehement opposition from the Punjab government and Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann.
In a recent development, BBMB officials have been asked to provide family accommodation for 142 CISF personnel in Nangal township. The move comes as a surprise, given the strong opposition from the Punjab government to the deployment of CISF personnel in the Bhakra project.
The Punjab government has been vocal about its opposition to the deployment of CISF personnel, citing concerns about the security and sovereignty of the state. Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has also expressed his reservations about the move, stating that it was unnecessary and would create unnecessary tensions.
However, the BBMB has decided to ignore the opposition and move ahead with its plans to house CISF personnel. The board has asked its officials to expedite the process of providing family accommodation for the personnel, with a deadline set for June 2023.
The decision to deploy CISF personnel in the Bhakra project was taken by the Union government in October 2022. The move was seen as a response to the increasing security concerns in the region, following a series of incidents involving rival groups of farmers and laborers.
The Punjab government had initially opposed the move, citing concerns about the security and sovereignty of the state. However, the Union government had maintained that the deployment of CISF personnel was necessary to maintain peace and stability in the region.
The BBMB has now decided to go ahead with its plans to house CISF personnel, despite the opposition from the Punjab government. The board has asked its officials to provide family accommodation for the personnel, which would include facilities such as housing, education, and healthcare.
The decision to deploy CISF personnel in the Bhakra project has been welcomed by some, who see it as a necessary measure to maintain peace and stability in the region. However, others have expressed concerns about the impact it could have on the local population and the environment.
