He said that the Punjab government is preparing a special policy to solve all the problems related to NRI Punjabis promptly. To listen to the problems of NRI Punjabis and to solve them, the Punjab government is planning to conduct NRI meetings twice every year in December and April.
The Punjab government invites NRI Punjabis that Punjab is yours, you come to Punjab, and the Punjab government is committed to protecting your lands, protecting your lives and property, and protecting your business.
Today's event was attended by NRI Punjabis belonging to District Moga, District Fazilka, District Ferozepur, District Bathinda, District Mansa, District Faridkot, and District Sri Muktsar Sahib.
Mentioning this special initiative taken by the government led by Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, he said that the government decided that the NRI Punjabis should not have to suffer in government offices, secretaries, and ministers' offices, so the government decided that the government itself will go to the doorsteps of the Punjabis and solve their problems.
He said that the government knows very well that the main issues of the NRIs are their land-property, business, and family disputes.
Dhaliwal appealed to all the NRI Punjabis that if any matter related to them is pending, then it is not necessary for him to personally come to Punjab. They can submit their applications to us through their relatives living in Punjab and the government will resolve their issues in due time.
The Minister said that the Punjab government will try to establish special fast-track courts for the cases of NRIs as soon as possible so that the cases of the NRI Punjabis can be settled in the minimum time so that they can save time and money.
He said that nodal officers are being appointed by the Punjab government to hear the issues of the NRI Punjabis at the district level who will ensure timely and appropriate solutions to the complaints of the NRI Punjabis only.
During the meeting with the NRI Punjabis, district-wise counters were established for the convenience of the NRI Punjabis from different districts where civil and police officials were listening to their issues and resolving the same. During this, more than 120 cases were heard.
The cabinet minister urged the NRIs to actively participate in the meeting program initiated by the Punjab government. He said that the last meeting is being organized at Sri Amritsar Sahib on December 30 for which NRIs can register online or on the spot.
