Phagwara/Chandigarh, December 3
Local Bodies Minister of Punjab Dr. Ravjot Singh on Tuesday said that the Punjab government has developed a comprehensive plan to ensure that 100 percent of the urban population has access to drinking water. During the foundation-laying ceremony for a water supply project worth Rs 4.35 crore in Phagwara, Dr. Singh said that all municipal corporations and councils have been instructed to conduct special surveys to identify areas facing water supply shortages. These areas will be prioritized for coverage.
Rs 4.35 crore project aims to benefit over 8,000 residents by providing water supply to neighborhoods including Santokhpur, Kothra, Gobindpura, Nakodar Road, Purewal Nagar, and Khalwara Road. The project will involve the installation of a 9-kilometer-long pipeline and the provision of more than 1,000 household water supply connections.
Dr. Singh also urged MC Commissioner Navneet Kaur Bal to closely monitor the project to ensure its timely completion. Notable attendees at the event included former minister and AAP leader Joginder Singh Mann, District Planning Board Chairperson Lalit Saklani, Improvement Trust Chairman Kashmir Singh, and AAP spokesperson Harnoor Singh.
