Explanation:

Punjab Assembly unanimously passed the 'Punjab Sutlej Yamuna Link Canal land (Transfer of Proprietary Right) Bill, 2016'. The bill was passed against the construction of contentious Sutlej Yamuna Link (SYL).

The bill is an attempt to divest its neighbouring states from getting share from Punjab’s river waters.It seeks to provide transfer of proprietary rights back to the land owners from whom the land was acquired by the state government for the construction of SYL free of cost.
