Since taking office on March 16, 2022, CM Mann has been focused on transforming the employment landscape in Punjab. He highlighted the stark difference in the recruitment process, emphasizing that, unlike before, jobs are now awarded purely based on merit rather than through corrupt practices or nepotism. This change has not only improved the public's perception of government jobs but has also encouraged the youth to seek employment within the country, hinting at a reversal in the trend of migration abroad in search of better opportunities.
