Will take every step to restore Punjab's former glory : Mann

Nagpur, May 8 (UNI) Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann said that his government will take every step to restore pristine glory of the state in every field.
“We will give impetus to employment, sports and industrial growth besides eradicating corruption, unemployment, drugs and pollution from Punjab to make it a frontrunner state in country” said Mann during a function to mark Golden jubilee of leading newspaper Lokmat here on Sunday.
He said that his predecessors have looted the state mercilessly due to which the state once known for vigour of its sons in Army, sportsmanship of players like late Dara Singh and sweetness of its water has lagged behind. He said that due to negligence of previous governments drugs have made inroads in the state. However, he said that his government will reverse all these things and make Punjab a leading state in country.
