💨 Abstract

In a recent all-party meeting, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann advocated for a special financial package from the Central Government, highlighting Punjab's role as a frontline state during conflicts and its contribution as the "sword arm" of the nation. Mann emphasized the state's critical role in facing external threats and the need for special benefits for border area workers, similar to those given in Jammu and Kashmir and hill states.
