Calling the people to give a befitted reply to the “defame Punjab

campaign” launched by the congress Vice President Mr. Rahul Gandhi and others, he said Punjab was fighting national as well as international war on drugs and not a single gram drug is being produced in Punjab.

He said “when I had made a promise that Punjab would be the first power surplus state about 4 years ago than the opposition parties made it a matter of joke but today we can proudly say that Punjab has archived its target” adding he said in next 8 months Punjab would have 5000 MW surplus power.
