Pointing out that he was committed to providing one job per family, Amarinder said no government employee would be deprived of his job. Rather, he promised regularisation of all contractual appointments, with related perks and facilities.

“I am only concerned about the political appointments that the Badals are hastily making to promote the interests of their own people,” he said, while adding that his target were the decisions which were blatantly politically motivated and sought to rehabilitate the disgruntled elements in the ruling SAD-BJP combine at the cost of the common people of the state.
