The Punjab government has set a record by handing over 61,000 appointment letters to the youth in the last 3.5 years. Last year, the Mann government handed over appointment letters to 2,105 youth, which include 2,023 linemen, 48 internal auditors, and 35 revenue accountants in Punjab State Power Corporation Ltd (PSPCL) and Punjab State Transmission Corporation Limited (PSTCL).
 
CM Mann highlighted that the recruitment process has been conducted fairly by adopting a complete transparent process, and the youths have been given jobs after clearing the exams in cut-throat competition. “The sole agenda of his government from day one has been to empower the youth by giving government jobs to them. He said that today is Punjab Day, but whether it is really a moment of rejoicing when the state was divided into so many pieces,” Mann said.
