FRAIL HEALTH OF PUNJAB ECONOMY CAUSING GRIEVANCE
B.K. Chum - 2013-02-04 13:13
Last week’s two developments have again pushed Punjab into media headlines. One is the Badal-led Akali Dal’s sweeping victory in the Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee elections. The other is the report of the latest edition of Economic Freedom of the States of India, which has indicted the Akali-BJP government for the deep downslide in Punjab’s economy.
