The Congress Party Co-ordination Committee has been formed under the leadership of former Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh, to address the problems of the people during the lockdown implemented in the wake of Corona pandemic. For this, Sh. Anandpur Sahib MP Manish Tewari got to know the ground level situation of senior leaders of Congress Party including MLAs, Mayor, Chairman and Members of the Commission & Board through video conferencing.Referring to the impact on the industries due to the lockdown, especially the micro and small industries on Mix-Used Land demanded the premission to open them. He said that these industries cater to the needs of many large industries. Similarly, there was a demand for giving financial assistance to the middle and lower classes of the society, because people do not have money in their pockets due to the shutdown. This class cannot voice its needs. In such a situation, to rotate the economy, they need purchasing power and therefore the government should provide financial support.MLA from Amritsar Sunil Datti, Arun Dogra from Dasuha and Mayor Sanjeev Sharma Bitu from Patiala informed that ration is being delivered to the needy from the Punjab government.
With the passage of time, the need for policy change is being felt, so that the problems of the people can be overcome.Reacting to these views, MP Tewari assured that the Congress is constantly working on solving people's problems. Whether it is a government headed by Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh in Punjab or the party leadership, work is going on at every level. All these pending issues will be resolved by taking them before the Central Government.
