Leader of the Congress Legislative Party Sunil Kumar Jakhar raised the issue soon after the Zero Hour ended and urged Speaker Charanjit Singh Atwal to bring a resolution on the condition of Punjabi farmers in Kutch.
The Speaker, however, refused to rake up the matter, saying "we can't compel other states to do this or that."
Reiterating his position, the Congress Legislative Party leader said "injustice" was being done to Punjabi farmers, but the Chief Minister was not present in the House to take up the matter.
