Brar stresses on need to revive industry and trade in Punjab

Fatehgarh Sahib, Jul 23 (UNI) To highlight the plight of the industries in Punjab, former Congress Working Committee member and Pehlan Punjab-Lok Hit Abhiyan convener Jagmeet Singh Brar today stressed on the need to revive industry and trade in the state.
Addressing the gathering of traders and industrialists at Mandi Gobindgarh town, Mr Brar said, “There are more than 40 lakh unemployed youth in Punjab who are turning to drugs and crime, and more than 25,000 industrial units have shut down and left because of the policies of the Akali-BJP government. If these units are revived then even at an average of 20/25 jobs per unit a large part of the unemployment problem in Punjab can be solved”.
He said industry has migrated to states like Himachal, Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat because of the corruption and forced partnership demands of the Badal family – Sukhbir and Majithia are always circling like vultures above businessmen in Punjab and take over anything that makes money.
