PAKHOKE (TARN TARAN), NOV 29
Terming that the state government has begun a massive drive to fill 1.13 lakh vacant posts in various departments with an aim to provide employment opportunities to the youth of state, the Punjab Chief Minister Mr. Parkash Singh Badal today said that the process to fill these posts would be completed very soon.
Interacting with the media persons on the sidelines of Sangat Darshan program in the Khadoor Sahib assembly segment here today, the Chief Minister said that the various departments have been asked to initiate the recruitment drive by advertising these posts in the newspapers. He said that the recruitment would be done in a fully transparent and fool proof manner so as to ensure that only the eligible and deserving candidates were selected for these posts, purely on merit. Likewise, Mr. Badal said that the departments have been asked to ensure that the recruitment drive was completed shortly so that deserving youth could be enrolled in the state government.
Replying to another query, the Chief Minister said that the people of Punjab have time and again reposed faith in the people friendly and development oriented policies of the SAD-BJP alliance. He said that owing to unprecedented development of the state and major initiatives for well being of all the sections of society, the alliance would come back to power after the assembly elections slated to be held in 2017. “There is hardly any doubt that people of state will elect the alliance government for third consecutive term after these polls” added Mr. Badal.
Advising the state Congress Chief Captain Amarinder Singh to shun the politics of confrontation, the Chief Minister said that people of state have rejected the political approach of the Lok Sabha MP from Amritsar twice in 2007 and 2012. He said that the former Chief Minister must learn the lesson from his trounce in yesteryears and resort to politics of consensus both within his party and outside. “Captain was rejected because of ‘vendetta politics’ pursued by him whereas people like us because we do not believe in this type of politics” added Mr. Badal.
On another query, the Chief Minister said that the SAD-BJP alliance government has embarked upon a major scheme to give facelift to the state. He said that under the scheme Rs 25 crore has been earmarked for every assembly segment to carry on development works. Likewise, Mr. Badal further said that in a major step aimed at providing world class civic amenities to residents of the cities across the state, the Punjab government has initiated a major scheme for providing the facility of water supply, sewerage, Sewerage Treatment Plants (STPs), Streetlights, Roads and parks in all the towns of the state. He said that the focus of the state government was to refurbish the cities with the state-of-the art facilities so that the residents could be benefitted from it on one hand and giving impetus to the overall development of the state on the other.
Earlier addressing the gathering in village Pandori Gola Ki, Kadd Gill, Baagrian and Pakhoke, the Chief Minister said that Sangat Darshan was a flagship program of the SAD-BJP alliance, which was very helpful in ensuring on the spot redressal of the grievances of the people. He said that these programs were also helpful to the state government for judging the performance of the officers, officials of the state government. Mr. Badal said that the sole aim of organizing these programs was to give impetus to the development in the state and it didn’t have any political motive.
Highlighting the significance of these programs, the Chief Minister said that Sangat Darshan was held only in Punjab and that too during alliance government’s rule. He said that no other Chief Minister of the country conducts such an extensive exercise of visiting each and every village to resolve the problems of people. Mr. Badal said that last year the Chief Minister of Delhi had unsuccessfully tried to replicate this program but was not able to continue it.
Prominent amongst other present on the occasion included Lok Sabha MP Jathedar Ranjit Singh Brahmpura, Chairman District Planning Committee Mr. Ravinder Singh Brahmpura, SGPC Member Jathedar Alwinderpal Singh Pakhoke, Special Principal Secretaries to Chief Minister Mr. KJS Cheema and Mr. Ajoy Kumar Sharma, Inspector General of Police Mr. Lok Nath Angra, Deputy Inspector General of Police Kunwar Vijay Pratap and Deputy Commissioner Mr. BS Dhaliwal.
