AAP Government headed by CM Mr. Bhagwant Mann has assumed office and is in action mode since day one. During his first 12 days in office, he has taken 12 major decisions which, if implemented properly by the team in letter and spirit, can change the governance all over. Let us discuss all the 12 decisions and how they will benefit the Public of Punjab and Indian Polity in the days to come.
1. SECURITY CUT FOR LEADERS
This step, although seem very small, will have a far- fetched consequences in improving Law and Order situation in the state. The personnel withdrawn from VIP Security will add up to the existing force and facilitate timely delivery of Justice to the Public. The government is using hence unused manpower and saving Public Money.
2. ISSUE OF ANTI-CORRUPTION ACTION LINE
Corruption and delay in work by Public Servants have become a norm in our country. Dilly Dallying and revisits will definitely have a hit when power will be with the Public, the real masters in the democracy. Willingly or unwillingly no one will have the courage to ask for the bribe and have the courage to resort to dilly-dallying avoiding his or her duties.
3. 25000 JOBS
This will help curb the menace of Un-Employment which is killing Youth Pan-India.
4. CONFIRMATION OF 35000 CONTRACT EMPLOYEES
This was long due. These people were waiting and protesting for this step for literal ages. It will definitely work their Economic and Mental Health.
5. 1 MLA 1 PENSION
Punjab may be, is the first state to curb the Pension of Former MLA'S. Lots of funds were being used there and without any use. Now the funds so saved will be diverted to Public Welfare making a marked difference in Public lives.
6. LIVE TELECAST OF ASSEMBLY PROCEEDINGS
The public will have a direct view of how their representatives are faring and behaving during session proceedings and how much they are aware of issues being faced by their electorates. This will make them more accountable and also will create awareness among youth towards politics and governance.
7. INR 101 CR COMPENSATION FOR FARMERS FOR DESTROYED CROP OF COTTON
This was very much required and long due.
8. PUBLIC HOLIDAY ON 23rd MARCH ON ACCOUNT OF SHAHID DIVAS
Will help Younger Generation understand the sacrifices made by our Martyrs in achieving freedom and will sensitize them on matters of National Well-Being and safety.
9. APPROACH TO CENTRE FOR AN ECONOMIC PACKAGE
Much needed. Punjab is running in deficit for years and an economic package is needed to revive the fading economy of our state.
10. INSTALLATION OF PHOTOS OF BHAGAT SINGH AND DR B.R.AMBEDKAR IN GOVERNMENT OFFICES
The nation which fails to give due respect to its Martyrs and Heroes can never progress. And Bhagat Singh and Dr. B.R.Ambedkar are the two least credited Heroes of our Country. Their vision and ideology need better coverage and respect which is now being given to them.
11. ORDER TO MLAS TO STAY WITH PUBLIC 24*7
Now MLA'S will have to stay with Public 24*7 and the approach of Public to their Elected Representatives has become easy with this decision. Connect between Electorate and Elected Representatives will improve for sure which is a basic requirement in healthy Democracy.
12. DECISION ON DOOR-STEP DELIVERY OF PDS FOOD-GRAINS
Will surely reduce corruption and my-sweet-will attitude of PDS Shops and save a lot of time for the Public who already are Below Poverty Line and have to for- go their Daily Wages sometimes just to get Ration.
All these steps are very good and public friendly and we can say that The New Government under S. Bhagwant Singh Maan is contributing to Public Welfare. AAP Leadership always said that they want to do something really tangible and practical to make the lives of the public easy but can't do it as Delhi is a Half-State. Now as they have started a new inning in Full-State like Punjab, it remains to be seen how they fare and will These steps act as a Launch-Pad for the Party Pan-India?
Only Time will Tell but as they say
"WELL BEGUN IS HALF DONE"
We can only hope and wish for the best.
