JALANDHAR: Preparations are in full swing for Punjab chief minister Bhagwant Mann to shift to a new accommodation, sprawled in nearly 10.5 acres of land in the heart of Jalandhar city, an official said. Around 95% of the work is complete and the CM office would be informed once everything is in place, the official, who didn't wish to be named, said. This will be the second official residence of Mann after Chandigarh. Mann had promised before the Jalandhar West bypoll in June last year that he would run the government affairs for people of Doaba and Majha for two days in a week from Jalandhar so that people no longer have to go to Chandigarh.
