Chandigarh, July 15 -- Pitching Punjab as the country's most promising destination for textile investment, chief minister Bhagwant Mann on Tuesday said it offered immense opportunities across the value chain for entrepreneurs. Inaugurating the Punjab State Pavilion and addressing the Punjab Session at BharatTex 2026 in New Delhi, the CM said the state government has introduced a new Industrial and Business Development Policy to boost investment, employment and exports, ensuring time-bound approvals through the single window and single pen systems. Highlighting that Punjab has attracted Rs.2 lakh crore of investment and generated five lakh employment opportunities in the last four years, Mann said the government treats entrepreneurs as partners in the state's growth and has ended bureaucratic harassment through the Red Card system. Industries and commerce minister Aman Arora said the state has received investment proposals worth over Rs.75,000 crore since the AAP government assumed office in 2022. "Punjab accounts for approximately 95% of the woollen knitwear production and around 65% of hosiery production. The state also ranks first in blended yarn production, with a 5.7% share in total spinning capacity," Arora said....
