Under the leadership of Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann, industrial development in Punjab has achieved new heights. Due to the state government’s investment-friendly policies, transparent governance, and secure environment, major investors from across the country are coming forward to set up their factories and industries in Punjab, making the state the preferred choice for investment. This clearly demonstrates that the industry has complete faith in the Punjab government, its environment, and its policies.

This confidence is not just limited to words but is visible in concrete figures. In the month of October alone, Punjab registered an investment of over ₹4,700 crore, which opened up employment opportunities for approximately 9,200 youth. And the achievement since the formation of the government is historic: a total investment of ₹1.34 lakh crore has come to Punjab, providing jobs to nearly 5 lakh young people. These figures reflect Punjab’s rapidly changing economic picture and the government’s success story.

Another significant piece of good news arrived in November. The Trident Group, which already employs about 10,000 people in Punjab, is set to make a major investment again. The company will invest a total of ₹2,000 crore in Punjab, which includes setting up a new textile plant in Barnala and an IT operation center in Mohali. This investment will create a total of 2,500 new jobs. The most commendable aspect is that the Trident Group will prioritize women for the majority of these jobs, which is a big opportunity for the daughters of Punjab. This large investment will give a major boost to Punjab’s industrial development.

In addition to Trident, several other prominent companies have also made significant investments in Punjab, establishing the state as an industrial hub. These major investments include ₹1,400 crore by IOL Chemicals in Barnala, ₹2,500 crore by Vardhman Special Steels and ₹1,000 crore by Happy Forgings in Ludhiana, along with a ₹950 crore major investment by Fortis Hospital in Mohali. Investors are coming here because of the fast government processes and the availability of a hardworking youth force in Punjab. The industry is showing such strong confidence in Punjab’s growth story that everyone is pleased.

These investments are not just numbers; they are a guarantee for the bright future of children and Punjab. The government has created a conducive environment where it is easy to do business and where youth can find employment by utilizing their potential with dignity. Employment is now coming to the doorstep of Punjab. The growth of industries is not just statistics; they are bringing happiness, prosperity, and a better future to every household in Punjab. Today, Punjab is moving forward, and industries are trusting Punjab.
