Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal on Saturday said relaxation of visa norms between India and Pakistan would usher "a new era of economic development by promoting bilateral trade, thereby benefiting the country in general and Punjab in particular." Talking to mediapersons after inaugurating the 220KV Grid station, Badal said the Indo-Pak trade has already got a major fillip with the opening of Integrated Check Post at Attari-Wagah border. Addressing a gathering, the Chief Minister said the state government was committed to the development of border areas for which "path-breaking" initiatives were being taken by them. He said that soon a Skill Centre would be opened at Chohla Sahib in which experts from the foreign companies would impart technical training to the youth of the area thereby enabling them to earn their livelihood.
