'Not even a single drop': Punjab CM clears stand on releasing more water to Haryana

Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann declared his government won't release more water to Haryana, asserting the state has used its full share. This escalates a water-sharing dispute, especially after the BBMB decided to release 8,500 cusecs to Haryana, a move Punjab opposes. Mann accuses Haryana and Rajasthan of 'thuggery' and hints at an all-party meeting to address the crisis.
