Chairing a high-level review meeting here at his office, the chief minister said that Punjab is on the threshold of becoming a front runner industrial state in the country. He said that the new Industrial Policy which is being prepared by the state government will act as a pivot for it.

The CM said the suggestions of industry captains of the state have been duly incorporated in this policy. Likewise, Mann said the opinions received from the industrial tycoons during his recent visits to Hyderabad, Chennai and Mumbai too have been included in it.
