Sukhbir criticised the AAP government for failing to take preventive flood measures, claiming poor preparedness worsened the crisis. He also alleged no substantial aid was provided to villagers by government officials.

During his visit to flood-hit areas in Gurdaspur, Dera Baba Nanak and Hargobindpur, Sukhbir distributed over 100 trolleys of relief material and appealed to industry and urban residents to support affected farmers. He praised the SGPC for running langars and medical camps.
