Based upon such faith and effort, the concept of delivering cost-effective government services to the citizens of Punjab was rolled out by BLS International Services in August 2016. Accordingly, 2147 of Sewa Kendras were setup across Punjab.

With diverse range of services and responsibilities, delivering an unrivalled outcome has become an upmost precedence for these Sewa Kendras.
