Two days ahead of the polling for the Punjab Assembly election, the Congress on Friday released its election manifesto with a slew of promises, including ending liquor-sand ‘mafias’, generating one lakh jobs, and providing 170 different government services online to the public.
Party’s State president Navjot Singh and Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi, along with other leaders, released the manifesto at a joint press conference and said if the Congress formed the next government, the first file that the Chief Minister would sign shall be to give one lakh jobs a year.
The leaders said the party would take steps to put an end to ‘mafias’ in the State. “Ending mafia raj by creating government corporations for liquor sale and sand mining would be a priority,” they said.
