In a first-of-its-kind initiative to save electricity during the peak summer season, government offices across Punjab started working on Tuesday from 7.30 a.m. and to 2 p.m. with Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann reaching the office two minutes in advance of the office work schedule.

The new office timing will remain applicable till July 15. The timings have been changed in all government offices situated in the state and Chandigarh.
