Later talking to the media Preneet Kaur said, “Due to incessant rains during the last few days there is an impending flood like situation in Patiala and many other places in Punjab. This (Presenting of Nath and Chuda) has been an age old tradition of Patiala and had been done during 1994 floods also.”

If needed people can migrate temporarily to the special shelters setup by the administration.”

Answering a query on Captain Amarinder Singh she said, “Maharaja Captain Amarinder Singh ji was supposed to come today but he couldn’t travel due to bad weather and he requested me and Jai Inder to fulfill this family tradition.”

On a query about the opposition’s comments Preneet Kaur said, “Today is not a day to do politics and we didn’t come here as politicians, we are here as citizens of Patiala and I urge you all to also not pay any heed to these unnecessary politically motivated comments. This was a major demand (Presenting of Nath and Chura) coming from the people of Patiala from the last 2 days and we are here to fulfill that.”
