The new timings in Punjab government offices came into effect on Tuesday with Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann saying the move will not just save power but result in many other benefits. The timings of state government departments have been changed from the earlier 9 am-5 pm shift to 7.30 am-2 pm. The new timetable does away with the 30-minute lunch break. Still, employees will work an hour less than before. (Video credit: PTI)
