Big leaders of previous regimes were part and parcel of this sin, but the AAP government has registered cases against 28,000 drug peddlers in the last one year with a conviction rate of 88 percent.\u201d He said this decisive action had given fresh momentum to the war against drugs by winning the confidence of the people in this campaign.<\/p>\n<p>CM Bhagwant Singh Mann said, \u201cThe enthusiasm of the people reflects the fact that we are very close to winning the war against drugs. Only a mass movement, and not police or government action alone, can ensure success. Earlier governments patronised the drug trade, but we have cracked down on it.\u201d He said the Yudh Nashean Virudh campaign is aimed at saving future generations and its results will be visible soon.<\/p>\n<p>Stressing the need of the hour, the Chief Minister said, \u201cWe must make concerted and selfless efforts for a massive crackdown against drugs. This campaign is a form of war against drugs, and the state government is committed to saving the youth, farmers, water, and environment of Punjab.\u201d He added that to make Punjab drug free, a comprehensive and multi-dimensional strategy has been adopted.<\/p>\n<p>Detailing the action taken so far, CM Bhagwant Singh Mann said, \u201cThe supply lines have been broken, big players connected with the drug trade have been sent to jail, drug victims have been treated and rehabilitated, and bulldozers have been used on the properties of drug traffickers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said the campaign would continue in the coming times and he would not rest until Punjab is completely free from the menace of drugs. He urged party cadres to actively seek the support of the common man so that the results of this decisive war against drugs surpass those of Phase I.<\/p>\n<p>Highlighting governance achievements, the Chief Minister said, \u201cThe AAP government in Punjab has taken several pro-people decisions. For the first time, canal water has reached villages at the tail end of the state, resolving long-pending irrigation issues.\u201d He said several closed canals and distributaries were reopened, and in some areas water flowed again after 37 years.<\/p>\n<p>CM Bhagwant Singh Mann further said, \u201cFarmers are now receiving daytime electricity, and 90 percent of households are getting free power, reducing financial pressure. More than 61,000 youth have been given government jobs transparently, without recommendation or corruption.\u201d He added that the state government had closed 17 toll plazas, saving the people of Punjab around \u20b964 lakh daily in toll fees.<\/p>\n<p>On healthcare, the Chief Minister said, \u201cTo provide accessible healthcare, 881 Aam Aadmi Clinics have been opened across the state, offering free treatment and medicines. The Mukh Mantri Sehat Yojna will soon be rolled out, enabling cashless treatment up to Rs 10 lakh.\u201d He added that revolutionary steps taken in the education sector have attracted national praise.<\/p>\n<p>CM Bhagwant Singh Mann said, \u201cA total of 118 Schools of Eminence are being established, which are being seen as a crucial step toward securing a bright future for underprivileged children.\u201d He said students are being provided free uniforms, and the free bus service for girls ensures that no girl is deprived of education. He added that special coaching is being provided for entry into the armed forces and competitive examinations such as NEET, JEE, CLAT, and NIFT.<\/p>\n<p>Expressing pride in the outcomes, the Chief Minister said, \u201cAs many as 265 students from Schools of Eminence and other government schools have qualified for JEE Mains, 44 for JEE Advanced, and 848 for NEET.\u201d He added that teachers and principals from Punjab have been sent to world-acclaimed institutes to upgrade their teaching skills.<\/p>\n<p>CM Bhagwant Singh Mann said that the Sadak Surakhya Force constituted by the state government has been widely praised across the country and even in the Parliament of the nation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bathinda News: Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann on Saturday attended a Lok Milni in Bathinda, where he urged party leaders, workers, and cadres to intensify their efforts to further transform the second phase of \u2018Yudh Nashean Virudh\u2019 into a mass movement, asserting that Punjab is leading the nation\u2019s decisive war against drugs.
