Ex-servicemen have been appointed as GoGs in five districts of Punjab now Pathankot included as 6th Distt and others will be added as per the training schedule

Lt Gen TS Shergill said that the GoG project launched in the state was foreseeing 18 departments connected with the people adding that GoGs were the real custodians of public exchequer.He said that one GoG would be appointed for each village. GoGs were here to ensure that each and every penny sanctioned by the state government was fully utilised for the well being of the general public.He said that besides enhancing transparency and accountability of the government, the biggest task before the GoGs was to put the state back on high growth trajectory.
