Punjab Urged to Create Diaspora Department to Harness Global Community

Punjab’s government has been urged to create a dedicated Diaspora Department to channel NRI investments and contributions toward the state’s development. The department would coordinate across business, education, and cultural affairs to align NRI input with local growth goals.

With millions of Punjabis living abroad in the UK, Canada, and the US, the move could help institutionalize communication, protect NRI property rights, and promote transparent engagement.
