Chandigarh: After Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) began its protest over the Sutlej Yamuna Link (SYL) canal by blocking roads, the Congress on Monday slammed the party, asserting that it, along with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), is playing a game of deception with the people of the state.

Speaking to ANI, Congress spokesperson Randeep Singh Surjewala said, "The entire so called call to block the National Highways is planned by both - the ruling BJP and their b-team Indian National Lok Dal. Lok Dal is going to vote alongside BJP in the Presidential election on July 17, then how are they boycotting the same BJP today? Also, Lok Dal has always opposed Haryana's interests. They are the traitors of Haryana's interests and they have always opposed SYL issue. It's time people saw through the game of deception that the BJP and the INLD are playing with them."
