After a recent CBI action in Amritsar, leader Bajwa has asked the government to publish a white paper on the creation of 65,000 jobs, raising doubts about its credibility.
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) recently conducted a probe in Amritsar that has sparked criticism of the state government's handling of employment promises. In response, political figure Bajwa publicly demanded a detailed white paper that would outline how 65,000 jobs are to be generated and allocated.
Bajwa argued that without transparent data, the government's credibility on its job creation agenda remains questionable. He emphasized that a formal document would allow stakeholders, including the public and opposition parties, to assess the feasibility of the promised positions.
The call for a white paper comes amid growing concerns over unemployment in Punjab, especially in the Amritsar region. Authorities have not yet responded to the demand, and the CBI investigation continues to be monitored by local media and civil society groups.
If released, the white paper would be expected to detail the sectors targeted for recruitment, the timeline for implementation, and the financial outlay required. Analysts suggest that such disclosure could either restore confidence or further expose gaps in the government's employment strategy.
