The opposition SAD on Thursday accused the Punjab government of ignoring flood protection work and failing to check illegal mining in the state that is ravaged by floods.
SAD chief Sukhbir Singh Badal, who was here to take stock of the situation, said, "The Congress government is directly responsible for the misery wrought on Punjabis due to devastating floods because it did not conduct required flood protection work and failed to check illegal mining which eroded river embankments."
