Revitalized by CM Mann, Punjab sees Rs 97,000 crore in investments

Punjab's CM Mann drives revival with revamped policies, Rs 97,000 crore investments, and skill development, rushing free electricity, boosting youth employment.

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann on Thursday said that after cleaning the mess of previous regimes for three years, the state government is now on path of restoring the pristine glory of Punjab.
Addressing the gathering after dedicating World Skill Campus of Excellence consisting of two premier institutions &ndash; newly renovated State of the Art Industrial Training Institute (ITI) and Multi Skill Development Centre (MSDC) here today, the Chief Minister bemoaned that the state has lagged behind in the process of development due to the regressive policies and malicious intent of the previous regimes.
He said that those were the times when industry was suffering, drug mafia and gangsters were flexing muscles under open patronization of the erstwhile rulers and the development of Punjab had derailed. However, Bhagwant Singh Mann said that since day one of assuming charge in office his government had focused on holistic development of the state and prosperity of its people.
The Chief Minister said that the state government has fulfilled almost all the guarantees promised to people adding that even those guarantees which were not made have also been given to people.
He said that on one hand the BJP led NDA government is enhancing the rates of toll everyday whereas on other hand the state government has closed 17 toll plazas in Punjab.
Likewise, Bhagwant Singh Mann said that a flawless plan was chalked out and executed to give a major push to development of every sector.&nbsp;
The Chief Minister said that unfortunately water had depleted in 117 out 153 blocks, which went into black dark zone. He said that the previous governments never bothered about making any effort to save the groundwater and the farmers at the tail ends, on this land of five rivers, never got water.
Bhagwant Singh Mann said after assuming charge the AAP government has revived 15947 water courses in the state due to which water has reached at the tail ends even in remotest villages.
Likewise, the Chief Minister said that his government has provided free power to households from the month of July after which 90% of them are getting free power.
Bhagwant Singh Mann said that for the first time the state government has purchased a power plant from a private firm to make the state surplus in power production.
He said that it is a matter of immense pride and satisfaction that the state government has named this thermal plant after Sri Guru Amar Dass ji- the third Sikh Guru.
The Chief Minister said that Punjab has complete communal harmony, peace and amity, which are mainly responsible for overall development and prosperity in the state.
Bhagwant Singh Mann said that due to strenuous efforts of Punjab government so far investments worth around Rs 97,000 crore have been firmed up in the state in the last three years adding that leading companies like Tata Steel, Sanatan Textiles and others are making a beeline to invest in the state.
He said that it is a matter of immense pride and satisfaction that companies are making optimum use of the congenial atmosphere backed by excellent infrastructure, power, skilled human resources and best industrial and work culture in the state to spread their business.
The Chief Minister said that he wants to hand over tiffins in the hands of youth by giving them employment so that they shun the syringes and menace of other drugs.
He said that as Idle hands are devil&rsquo;s workshop, so the state government is trying its best to ensure that maximum youth get jobs so that they do not fall prey to the social menaces.
Bhagwant Singh Mann said that unemployment is the root cause of several social problems due to which the state government is focusing on eradicating this malady and so far around 55,000 government jobs have been provided to the youth.
The Chief Minister said that the drug mafia was patronized by the earlier governments but his government has launched a crusade against drugs.
Bhagwant Singh Mann said meticulous planning has been done to wipe out the menace of drugs from the state and now war against drugs has begun in a full-fledged manner.
He said that apart from snapping the supply lines of drugs the state government has put the big fishes involved in this crime behind the bars adding that now the property of the drug peddlers is being seized and destroyed adding that this noble cause cannot be accomplished without active public support.
The Chief Minister said that the state government has issued a Whatsapp helpline number 9779100200 for seeking the support of the people in this war. He asked the people to share any information pertaining to the drug smugglers operative in their area or city on this Whatsapp number.
Bhagwant Singh Mann said that the identity of the caller will be kept secret and will not be disclosed to anyone.
The Chief Minister said that youth of the state possess inherent qualities to excel in every field and their capabilities must be utilized properly.
He said that the students and youth are like planes and the state government will provide them a launchpad to go ahead in life. Bhagwant Singh Mann unequivocally said that he won&rsquo;t rest until the youth of Punjab don&rsquo;t achieve their desired goals and excel in every field.
The Chief Minister exhorted the youth to stay grounded even after achieving huge success in life and believe in hard work as it is the sole key to success.
He impressed upon the youth to work hard in the state as there was a lot of scope of progress and prosperity on this land. Bhagwant Singh Mann said that the state government is committed to giving impetus to the development of the state and prosperity of its people.
The Chief Minister said that this Campus of Excellence has a sprawling 20 acre campus which has the capacity to provide skill training and facilitate job placements for over 3,000 students.
He said that it is a matter of immense pride and satisfaction that Rajya Sabha Member Dr. Vikramjit Singh Sahney has adopted and mentored ITI Ludhiana and has contributed Rs. 2 Crores from his MPLAD fund and additional Rs. 70 Lakhs by his own to upgrade and modernize ITI &ndash; Ludhiana.
Bhagwant Singh Mann said that the campus of excellence will offer cutting-edge technology courses including Robotic Welders, 3D Printing Machines, CNC Machines and others in digital classrooms with Audio-Video setups and advanced training Labs.&nbsp;
The Chief Minister bemoaned that due to indifferent attitude of previous regimes, the Multi Skill Development Centre had remained vacant and un-utilized for years adding that this centre will provide total free of charge Skill Courses to the youth in disciplines like Artificial Intelligence, Aviation, Hospitality, Tourism, Agriculture Skill Development, Fashion Designing, Beauty and Wellness, Nursing, CNC Programming, Electrician, Welding, and other courses accredited by National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC).
Bhagwant Singh Mann further said that there was tremendous scope of skilled manpower in various sectors due to which the state government has been focusing to deliver quality skill training to the youth on modern lines for coping up with the demand of local industry.
He said that Skill training center will fulfill a twin objective of coping up with the needs of industry to have skilled manpower on one hand and opening new vistas of employment for the youth on the other.
On the occasion Cabinet Ministers Harjot Singh Bains and Tarunpreet Singh Sondh, Rajya Sabha MPs Dr. Vikramjit Singh Sahney and Sanjeev Arora along with others were also present.

This is the first US state to ban abortion pills 

The pill, mifepristone, was approved for use by the Food and Drug Administration more than a decade ago and has been legally available for years.

Wyoming on Friday became the first US state to ban the use of abortion pills, the latest salvo in a campaign by conservative-led states to roll back access to abortion.
After signing the ban on abortion pills, Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon appealed to legislators to act further by proposing a total ban on abortion be added to the state constitution and then putting it before voters for approval.
"I believe this question needs to be decided as soon as possible so that the issue of abortion in Wyoming can be finally resolved, and that is best done with a vote of the people," the Republican governor said in a statement.
The Wyoming action comes amid a flurry of activity across the country by anti-abortion groups seeking to win a total ban on abortions following a landmark Supreme Court ruling last year.
Also looming is a ruling in a federal courtroom in Texas, where a judge is expected to decide imminently on a possible national ban on a widely used abortion pill.
The pill, mifepristone, was approved for use by the Food and Drug Administration more than a decade ago and has been legally available for years.
Texas judge Matthew Kacsmaryk could order the abortion pill taken off the market across the country.
Texas legislators are also considering a proposal that would not only ban abortion pills but also require internet service providers in the state to block access to websites where such pills are for sale by mail.
Gordon, the Wyoming governor, said he would not back down in the fight against abortion.
"I believe all life is sacred and that every individual, including the unborn, should be treated with dignity and compassion," Gordon said in a letter Friday evening to the secretary of state.
Since the US Supreme Court last year overturned a 1973 ruling that established abortion as a constitutional right, anti-abortion activists have sought ways to enshrine a ban across the nation.
About 15 states already restrict access to mifepristone by requiring a physician to provide it, according to the Guttmacher Institute, a reproductive health research group.

In a first, the Supreme Court will go paperless when it adjudicates the contentious issue of the scope of powers of the Centre and the Delhi government over control of services.
Top court's constitution bench comprising judge will list the matter on September 27 for fixing the timeline for hearing.
The 'green bench' will use no papers when the hearing for 'service row' actually begins, said Justice DY Chandrachud. 
The tentative hearing in the matter concerning the scope of legislative and executive powers of the Centre and the Delhi government will begin by mid-October.

1st time ever: Supreme Court's 'paperless' hearing in Delhi govt vs Centre power tussle case

SC bench to go 'paperless' in Delhi-Centre power row hearing

Top court's constitution bench comprising judge will list the matter on September 27 for fixing the timeline for hearing.

In a first, the Supreme Court will go paperless when it adjudicates the contentious issue of the scope of powers of the Centre and the Delhi government over control of services.
Top court's constitution bench comprising five judges will list the matter on September 27 for fixing the timeline for hearing.
The 'green bench' will use no papers when the hearing for 'service row' actually begins, said Justice DY Chandrachud.&nbsp;
The tentative hearing concerning the scope of legislative and executive powers of the Centre and the Delhi government will begin by mid-October.
On February 14, 2019, a two-judge bench had recommended that a three-judge bench be set up to decide over the issue of control of services in the national capital in view of its split verdict
The latest observation came after lawyers said a constitution bench headed by Chief Justice of India U U Lalit will start hearing from September 13 pleas on the validity of the Centre's decision to grant 10 per cent reservation to economically weaker sections (EWS) in admissions and jobs through the 103rd Constitutional Amendment Act, 2019.
The bench was informed that many senior lawyers appearing in the Delhi-Centre row case will be arguing in the EWS matter as well and they should therefore be accommodated.
The court said it will list the matter on September 27 for directions on how it will proceed further, looking at the stage of hearing in the EWS matter.
