Bathinda, April 6, 2020 (Yes Punjab News)
Spearheading efforts to express gratitude to those who are serving humanity so that the rest of the populace can stay safe, Punjab Finance Minister Mr. Manpreet Singh Badal on Monday reached out to medical and paramedical professionals, police personnel, and cleanliness workers in Bathinda.
“This is perhaps the first-ever guard of honour in India meant exclusively for the medical and paramedical professionals,” Manpreet Singh Badal said while addressing them at Bathinda today.
The ‘Guard of Honour’ is meant for the bravest of the brave and visiting dignitaries. “And here in Bathinda, we have presented a guard of honour to doctors, medical and paramedical staff for their extraordinary bravery,” Manpreet Singh Badal said. I think everyone in the country will follow this practice of arranging a special guard of honour to express their appreciation and gratefulness.
