MOHALI, 13 March 2026:
Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann on Thursday asserted that Punjab is witnessing a decisive turnaround in its industrial fortunes, with global investors returning to the state after years of extortion and arm-twisting that had driven industry away before 2022. Speaking after performing the groundbreaking ceremony of Infosys’ ₹286 crore campus in Mohali, the Chief Minister stated the project alone will generate direct employment for 2,700 youth and thousands of indirect jobs.
The Chief Minister highlighted that the Punjab Government has already attracted investment proposals worth more than ₹1,55,000 crore since March 2022, creating employment opportunities for over 5,44,000 young people. He added that the upcoming Progressive Punjab Investment Summit from March 13 to 15 in Mohali will mark a defining moment for the state’s industrial resurgence, with the next three days set to script a new success story for Punjab’s economic growth.
