This is causing Punjab to lose hundreds of crores in revenue, and industries are also leaving the state – Meet Hayer
Punjab Newsline, Chandigarh, March 20-
AAP MP Gurmeet Singh Meet Hayer said that the AAP has always supported farmers and will continue to do so. However, due to the border closures, an environment has developed where even the industries that were established in Punjab are now leaving. He urged the farmers to open one side of the border, stating that the BJP government sitting in Delhi will not suffer any losses due to this. Instead, it is directly harming Punjab, causing the state government to lose hundreds of crores in revenue, and industries are leaving Punjab.
He said that unemployment had earlier pushed the youth into drug addiction. Over the past 20-22 years, unemployment in Punjab has significantly increased. Very few government jobs were announced, which left the youth without proper direction, pushing them toward drugs. Meet Hayer said that today, the Punjab government is continuously taking action against drug menace.
