Cabinet Minister Sanjeev Arora Visits Amritsar

Amritsar witnessed an important political development as Punjab’s Cabinet Minister Sanjeev Arora arrived in the holy city and engaged with the local industrial community. Speaking with determination and confidence, the minister highlighted the state government’s recent steps to ease policies related to the allotment and management of industrial plots. According to him, these reforms are designed to bring much-needed relief to entrepreneurs and industrialists who had long faced procedural hurdles in expanding their businesses.

Addressing representatives of industries, Arora emphasized that the government has simplified norms for acquiring industrial plots, aiming to encourage investment and strengthen Punjab’s industrial landscape. “The revised policies are a big step forward. Entrepreneurs should not miss this opportunity. These changes are made keeping in mind the requirements of both small and large industries. The government’s vision is clear – to support industries so they can create jobs and contribute to economic growth,” he said.

The Cabinet Minister also underlined that his government is fully committed to reviving Punjab’s industrial sector, which has been struggling with various challenges in recent years. He noted that industries are the backbone of the state’s economy and that supporting them with favorable policies is a top priority. His appeal to the entrepreneurs was direct: make use of the reforms, expand your businesses, and help Punjab rise as an industrial hub once again.

Adding to the significance of the day, Sanjeev Arora also revealed that he has formally taken charge of the Power Department just a day earlier. This announcement carried special weight for the industrial sector, as power supply and electricity tariffs have been longstanding concerns for many business owners. Arora assured that he would give top priority to ensuring reliable power availability for industries as well as households.

“The Power Department plays a crucial role in every aspect of development, whether it is industry, agriculture, or domestic life. My responsibility is to strengthen this sector and make sure Punjab does not face unnecessary disruptions. Affordable and consistent power will be ensured so that industries can run smoothly without added burdens,” he remarked.

Arora’s visit to Amritsar was received positively by local business leaders who expressed cautious optimism about the government’s promises. Many welcomed the relief in plot policies and hoped that similar steps would be taken in other areas like taxation, export support, and infrastructure development.

The minister concluded his address by reaffirming that the government’s door will always remain open for dialogue with entrepreneurs. He urged industries to approach the administration with their concerns and assured that every possible step would be taken to resolve them. His balanced approach of announcing reforms while also emphasizing accountability struck a chord with the attendees.

As Punjab looks to position itself as a progressive and business-friendly state, Sanjeev Arora’s proactive stance in both industrial and power departments is expected to set the tone for further developments. His call to entrepreneurs to embrace the changes could mark the beginning of a new industrial chapter for the state.
