| Summary: | The Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB) had been given the task of constructing a Software Technology Park (STP) by the Chief Minister of Pubjab.

The Chief Minister wanted to build a robust infrastructure and create a success story in the IT sector for the next elections. The upcoming elections also created a sense of urgency within the Pubjab government to build an IT infrastructure in the Punjab and show progress to the IT industry as well as the general public. |
