While speaking at the #SwachhIndia Cleanathon, Punjab Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh talked about the efforts being made by the state government to curb crop stubble burning. "We are monitoring rural areas to see which village is burning stubble, and is leading to air pollution. Punjab's colleges and universities were working hard to find solution to the crop burning problem. The issue is economic in nature and poor farmers who are already in debt are not worried about finding alternatives to stubble burning," the chief minister added.
