“Keeping with the promise made in the election manifesto of providing one job per family, the Congress government has gone full throttle to ensure successful implementation of the same. After taking over the reins by the new state government, PSPCL and PSTCL has given employment to the 384 dependents of the deceased employees,” said the minister.

He said that the Ghar Ghar Rozgar scheme is being implemented with unprecedented success throughout the state.
