The Supreme Court has warned Punjab for ignoring a 15-year-old ruling on dues to Himachal Pradesh. The court's warning comes after Punjab failed to comply with the order.
The Supreme Court's warning to Punjab is a significant development in a long-standing dispute between the two states. The court had ruled in favor of Himachal Pradesh 15 years ago, but Punjab has yet to comply with the order. The exact amount of dues owed by Punjab to Himachal Pradesh is not specified, but the court's warning suggests that the amount is substantial. The Supreme Court's intervention is likely to put pressure on Punjab to settle the dues. The dispute between the two states has been ongoing for many years, and the court's warning may finally bring a resolution to the issue.
