At a time when top officials from Punjab and Haryana are claiming that they have taken effective measures to check stubble burning, farmers in Mohali district were actually proving them wrong. A day before the Punjab chief secretary Karan Avtar Singh appeared in the Supreme Court, several farmers were arrested for burning paddy stubble. NDTV travelled to villages in Punjab and found that despite strict action, stubble burning continued unabated.
