Gurpurab Greetings Birthday of Sri Guru Ramdas Ji (Oct. 9)
My Word Ajay Bhardwaj Editor -in-Chief editorpunmedia@gmail.com T he first Punjab Progressive Investors' summit in 2013 was like throwing a pebble in a pond. Significantly, however, it generated a renewed buoyancy in the investment sector which saw the state government signing 128 MoUs. The run-up to the 2nd summit, slated for October 28 and 29 in Mohali, has been far more challenging. Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Badal has taken head on and done his part of the slogging to rope in some of the key industrial moghuls, who would be fetching new investments to the state. The scheduled summit comes around when the World Bank has showered accolades on the state for its novel and path-breaking initiative of introducing single-window system for prospective investors. Hand-in-hand goes another extraordinary initiative of creating a pre-cleared land bank for investors. All this comes close on the heels of other positives like the state becoming power surplus, developing massive infrastructure and introducing governance reforms in a big way. In the cover story we have harped in detail on the investorfriendly atmosphere that the state unveils as the stage is set for the second summit. On the cultural front, the traditional Punjabi Jutti has been breaking new grounds on ‘phoren’ lands. The new look designer juttis are making waves in cities like London and New York. The recent spurt in demand from overseas has added a new zing to the "juttis".. A special report on this inseparable part of the Punjabi attire. In sports, the Punjab Police have emerged team and individual champions in the All-India Police Golf Championship maintaining their traditional superiority in the game among the uniformed forces.
