Amritsar, August 2
Punjab Revenue Minister Bikram Singh Majithia said the SAD-BJP alliance will contest the upcoming Assembly elections on the development agenda and form government for the third consecutive time in Punjab.
Majithia was in the city to inaugurate two sub-registrar offices. These offices have been equipped with ultra-modern facilities at the cost of Rs 5 crore.
Interacting with the media persons, Majithia said to provide hassle-free services to the citizens, the Punjab Revenue Department had set up sub-registrar offices with ultra-modern facilities on the pattern of passport offices.
Majithia said in the first phase, new sub-registrar offices had been established at Amritsar, Jalandhar, Ludhiana-West, East and Central, Bathinda and Patiala. More such offices were coming at Dera Bassi, Kharar, Moga, Pathankot and Hoshiarpur.
He said the Revenue Department had set up 163 computerised ‘Fard Kendras’ in the state from which approximately Rs 1 crore people had been benefited. “Other than this, the Punjab Government has waived off stamp duty for the transfer of property in blood relations,” he said.
