Chandigarh, February 23:
Punjab Transport Minister S. Laljit Singh Bhullar today urged NRI Punjabis to open ‘booking and dispatch’ services in Punjab for doing their transport business abroad.

Transport Minister Laljit Singh Bhullar said, Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann was making tireless efforts to make state a “Rangla Punjab”, thus NRI Punjabis should also contribute equally in these efforts.
