For beating the heat and the power blues, the Punjab Government on May 2, 2023 launched its early-come-early-go plan by changing the office timings from 7:30 am to 2 pm instead of the usual 9 am to 5 pm for the next two-and-a-half months – a move expected to save 350 MW daily. Even as the new timings are sans any lunch break, the employees will still work an hour less than the usual eight-hour timetable.
