Punjab has got Rs 56,000 crore investment under AAP govt: Kejriwal

Ludhiana, May 28 (UNI) Punjab has got investments worth Rs 56 thousand crores since the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government took over two years back and stopped the trend of industries leaving the state, AAP National Convenor and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said on Tuesday.
"Before our government was formed, the condition of business and industry in Punjab was so bad that the industries here were leaving Punjab and going to Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, Rajasthan and the surrounding states. Within the last 2 years, the trend of industries leaving Punjab has stopped and new industries are coming to Punjab," Kejriwal said here at a town hall meeting with traders.
"Punjab, under the Mann government, got investments worth 56 thousand crores," he said.
