Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu has revived long-pending demands for Himachal's 7.19% share in Chandigarh, the return of the Shanan Hydel Project from Punjab, and settlement of BBMB dues, issues that could have significant financial and administrative implications for Punjab. If Himachal succeeds in strengthening its legal and political claims, is Punjab heading towards a fresh inter-state battle over assets, power and resources ? As multiple legacy disputes return to the forefront, can Punjab afford another prolonged confrontation, or is it time for both states to find a lasting settlement before these issues become even more politically charged ?
