Punjab Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal today said the SAD-BJP government has unleashed a wave of reforms in the state which has acted as catalyst for further development in the index of progress and prosperity.

"Reforms taken by present Badal government have acted as a catalyst for further development in the index of progress and prosperity," he said after inaugurating a new district administrative complex (DAC) constructed at a cost of Rs 110.57 crore here.

He said the reforms undertaken by the SAD-BJP government have changed people's lives for the better as now they can avail 249 citizen centric services under one roof at 389 sewa kendras in urban areas whereas the rural areas would also see these kendras operating shortly which will take the number of such centres to around 3000.
 

He said that such progressive agenda has only been pursued under the leadership of Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal.

He said that the International Airport at Mohali will start operation of international flights from September 15.

Sukhbir said that in the next five years, Rs 2500 crore would be spent on the overall development of Mohali which is already on the road to become economic hub of Punjab through Edu city, IT city, Medi city and the advent of Infosys.
