The Chief Minister also offered fulsome support and cooperation to the Union government for setting up a Forensic laboratory in the state. He said that despite of being a border state with huge threat of smuggling of drugs, weapons and others from the other side of barbed wire, Punjab does not have any such laboratory to check drugs. Bhagwant Mann said that the state government will leave no stone unturned for setting up this laboratory.
