Youth returning to Punjab from abroad, says CM; Akalis rubbish claim

The Hindu  

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann asserted on Tuesday that Punjab was witnessing “reverse migration,” with youth returning from abroad to join government jobs in the State. The Shiromani Akali Dal, however, termed the claim “absolutely misleading.” At an event here, Mr. Mann said the State Government has handed over appointment letters to 44,667 youth in various departments since it came to power, and the recruitment was done purely on merit by adopting a completely transparent process. Mr. Mann hit out at the “Badal family”, and former Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh, accusing them of doing nothing for the welfare of people even though they had ruled the state for fairly long periods of time. Hitting out at Mr. Mann, senior Shiromani Akali Dal leader and former minister Daljit Cheema said the Chief Minister’s claim on “reverse migration” was completely false and misleading.
