INLD has threatened that its youth workers would stop the Punjab Roadways buses in Haryana on July 10 demanding construction of the Sutlej-Yamuna Link (SYL) canal.
SAD, the former ruling party in Punjab, termed INLD's act as unfortunate, illegal, unconstitutional and highly dangerous.
In a statement released here, the SAD secretary and spokesperson Daljit Singh Cheema said it was surprising that a responsible political party was giving call for such a program which could directly result in bloody clashes between the people of Punjab and Haryana.
He said political parties from Haryana should desist from indulging in such inciting activities and should not forget their responsibilities while trying to score points in political battle on SYL issue.
He said neither such "bogus threats" can scare Punjabis nor can stop them from entering Haryana.
The SAD has urged Haryana chief minister Manohar Lal Khattar to take serious notice of the threat issued by INLD and ensure safety of Punjabis besides smooth flow of traffic from Punjab to Delhi via Haryana and vice versa.
