NRI, (non-resident Indian) Mr. Joginder Bassi, producer
of "Gaunda Punjab radio Prog" Toronto, is
trying to use different kind of approach with Punjab
Govt. official to solve the NRI problems.
Gaunda Punjab Radio Program has been on the air since
1982. It broadcast news, views, talk shows, opinions
and information about Punjab, India, Canada and has
completed its 22 successful years of service.
The new program, which was started last month, can
be listened on FM in Toronto area. The Punjab government's
new approach , 'CM Rhubarb'- an NRI radio broadcast
will solve the problems of Canadian NRIs.
According to the NRI press reporter, it looks like
that Punjab Chief Minister Capt. Amarinder Singh has
its own interest directly or indirectly to enforce
the policies and programs of the Punjab government
towards Candian NRI's problems back home
Purpose of the new program is to address NRIs problems
pertaining to the police and legal disputes. Under
this program, every week a senior officer of the Punjab
Police, DIG and Senior Deputy Advocate General interact
with listeners of Gaunda Punjab Radio in live broadcasts.
It is very clear that Chief Minister Capt. Amarinder
Singh during his recent visit to Canada is trying
to fulfill his promises with NRIs. God knows how long
Amarinder Singh will rember his promises and his orders
to the police will stay alive. Upto now, NRIs have
great failure in their back home problems in Punjab
If Mr. Bassi is taking this kind of grteat approach,
he must have support from NRIs.
