He passed an order to live-stream the working of the officials in the revenue department. The order also made it mandatory to submit a daily report of working in the department with a follow-up check from the people inquiring if any bribe was taken. The revenue officers objected to the order and threatened protest after which the order was withdrawn.[13]
On 5 December 2019, the Council of Ministers in the Amarinder Singh government took a decision to reduce the number of posts of patwari in the revenue department from 4,716 to 3,660.
