Businessman Hardeep Singh said ever since CM Mann launched the helpline numbers calling it a red letter day for the entire Punjabi community, he had received around 600 complaint calls and WhatsApp messages.

“My business is suffering. I am using this SIM card for the past two years. I do not know how this happened,” said Hardeep. He said he had been asked to visit the Revenue Department’s office on Monday after he reported the matter to the police.

On April 21, the CM had emphasised that the sole purpose of evolving this entire mechanism was to ensure quick disposal of services to the NRIs and locals.
