Punjab to move Anti-Red Tape Act soon

To eliminate red-tapism and improve ease of doing business in the state, the Punjab Government will soon bring the Punjab Anti-Red Tape Act, 2021. The Act aims to reduce the compliance burden of business and citizen services by minimum 50 per cent.

The Anti-Red Tape Act, which is likely to be introduced soon, will probably be the first in the country and aims to stop all kind of unnecessary harassment faced by the industry.

The Act would be instrumental in providing various measures for simplification of government processes.
