He said that it will facilitate the people and further propel the progress of state adding that it is his dream to make sure that every section of the society makes progress in varied fields. Bhagwant Singh Mann said that earlier chief ministers never dared to hold such events because they were reluctant to face the people due to their misdeeds.

The chief minister said the traders don’t want anything else except a congenial atmosphere to work and excel in field adding that the state government is committed for it. He said that the state government has found a noble way for it by starting the Sarkaar Tuhade Dwaar scheme.

The chief minister said that people now have faith in working of the state government due to which the NRIs are now becoming active partners in the development of Punjab. Bhagwant Singh Mann said now the NRIs are donating their properties and houses to the state government for setting up Aam Aadmi clinics in the state.
