Today, Congress member parliament from Patiala Preneet Kaur, wife of former Punjab chief minister Capt Amarinder Singh along with Punjab Lok Congress workers, her daughter Jai Inder Kaur paid obeisance at Patiala’s Historic Kedarnath Mandir on Patiala-Rajpura road.
After paying her obeisance, Congress member parliament from Patiala Preneet Kaur told the Punjab Lok Congress (her husband’s party) workers that she will oppose the proposal of Punjab government to sell the land of the Kedarnath temple to the commercial players, as Improvement Trust is going to sell this prime chunk of land.
Later she tweeted “ The @PunjabGovtIndia is trying to sell the land of the temple to commercial players, which we won’t let happen at any cost.”
On November 23, 2022 royalpatiala.in had already highlighted “Government to convert Patiala bus terminus site into residential colony” in these columns, which she’s opposed today.

“It’s very strange that she opposes the dream project of her husband. The said chunk of land, which she is opposing, belongs to Improvement Trust. Previous congress government under the chief minister ship of her husband Capt Amarider Singh has transferred the said land to the Improvement Trust. During her husband’s chief minister tenure the same improvement trust tried to sell the land through auction. The tried it twice on 23 September 2021 and December 15, 2021 to sell the land through auction. But somehow the trust failed to sell it commercially. Now when the trust has requested to sell this land both commercially and for residential purpose. Now, she is opposing the same, which her husband had approved. She must update herself before giving such kind of statements” said Gurpreet Singh.

Preneet Kaur takes a stance against Capt Amarinder Singh’s approved project. When contacted the executive officer of the Improvement Trust Patiala he said “the said land is legally belongs to the improvement trust. The state government has already transferred the land in the name of improvement trust Patiala.”
“Preneet Kaur is a seasoned politicians. She represented India when she was minister of state during her last tenure. This kind of irresponsible statement is not expected from her. She should know what to speak. Her government had approved the project. Now, she is saying “she won’t let happen at any cost.” What she wants to say? She must refrain from doing politics with the residents of Patiala. Patialavies has already given their mandate to AAP” said Patiala (urban) MLA Ajitpal Singh Kohli.
