His teachings inspire everyone to uphold the values of hard work, skill, dedication and commitment towards their profession. Artisans, workers, technical experts and small business owners make an invaluable contribution to the industrial growth of the country and Punjab. Their hard work forms the foundation of a strong industrial sector and economy.
He said that if Congress forms the government in Punjab, a separate and comprehensive industrial policy will be formulated, keeping the needs of the industry in mind. Special efforts will be made to promote small and medium industries, create new employment opportunities, address the problems faced by business owners and connect traditional industries with modern technology. The Congress aims to restore Punjab's position among the leading industrial states of the country.
Leader of Opposition Partap Singh Bajwa also said that strengthening Punjab's economy requires providing a favourable environment to industrialists, small business owners, artisans and workers. Promoting industries will generate employment opportunities for the youth and strengthen the state's economy.
