Claim: Punjab tops the list of states in the foreign inward remittances category, whereas Gujarat stands first in having the greatest number of Fugitive Economic offenders.
Fact-check: Punjab is not the top contributor to India's Inward Remittances - FACTLY
Verdict: according to the latest rbi report on india's inward remittances for 2020-21, maharashtra tops the list by contributing 35.2% of total remittances, while punjab stands 9th with a share of 3%. also, the government has not categorised the fugitive economic offenders based on the state they belong to. people from other states are also mentioned in the list. hence the claim made in the post is misleading.
