Kuldeep Singh Dhaliwal in the House, on Wednesday, Mr. Aman Arora told the House that the investment inflows had directly and indirectly created over 6.36 lakh jobs in the private sector. He cited the example of Japanese steel major AICHI Steel, which scaled up its planned investment from \u20b9500 crore to \u20b91,100 crore after being impressed by Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann led state government\u2019s facilitation and ease of doing business.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Catching the Congress MLA Hardev Singh Laddi Sherowalia off guard on charge that no one from Shahkot assembly constituency got a government job, Mr Aman Arora challenged him to convene a gathering in his Shahkot constituency. \u201cI will come and we will ask the people if they got jobs. If I am wrong, I will resign as minister and MLA. If I am right, then Laddi should resign,\u201d he said. MLA Laddi didn\u2019t accept the challenge and walked away.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>He asserted that all government jobs had been given on merit, without any bribe or recommendation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Aman Arora highlighted the state government\u2019s record push for skill development, noting that the state budget had allocated \u20b925 crore for the Skill Development Mission for the first time in 75 years, up from \u20b910 crore previously. He claimed over 22 lakh youth had been facilitated through placement camps and handholding exercises. At a recent mega job fair in Sunam, 61 companies participated and issued on-the-spot job letters to nearly 700 youth.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Employment Generation minister further shared that the state government was setting up a \u20b9100-crore world-class Sant Attar Singh Maharaj Armed Forces Preparatory Institute in Sangrur district\u2013 the first of its kind globally \u2013 to train 500 youth annually for officer-level positions in the armed forces.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Citing central government data, Mr. Aman Arora said Punjab\u2019s unemployment rate among the 15-29 age group had dropped from 19.1 per cent in 2022 to 17 per cent in 2025, and referenced the Periodic Labour Force Survey which placed Punjab among states with improved employment metrics.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Drawing a global analogy, he said India\u2019s GDP was slightly higher than China\u2019s at the time of Independence. \u201cChina put every hand to work and became the world\u2019s factory. In the near future, China may surpass the US. We have the same capacity, but the right environment was missing. We are now correcting that,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Cabinet Minister stressed that no government in the world could guarantee a job to every citizen, asserting that the real duty of a government was to create a conducive ecosystem for industry and employment. \u201cWe are not here to just give numbers. We are creating an atmosphere where every youth can stand on his own feet,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Taking a swipe at the Opposition\u2019s demand for a white paper, he said, \u201cThe best, cheapest and most sustainable white paper is to ask the people directly. File an RTI or hold a public meeting. Let the people tell you if they got jobs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Aman Arora lashed out at the previous Congress government over its \u201cHar Ghar Naukri\u201d promise, calling it the \u201cbiggest fraud\u201d on Punjab\u2019s youth. He asserted that the AAP government had provided nearly 70,000 government jobs in a transparent manner, without any quid pro quo. He reiterated that the government\u2019s sole objective was to make Punjab a model for \u2018Ease of Doing Business\u2019 and generate dignified, skill-based employment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8211; Aman Arora catches Cong mla Laddi off guard over Shahkot jobs claim &#8211;
