Panchkula, December 15
Former Deputy Chief Minister of Haryana and Congress leader Chander Mohan inaugurated the party's poll office, kick-starting the campaign of Congress' Mayoral candidate Upinder Kaur Ahluwalia in Sector 14 here today.
A postgraduate from Panjab University, Chandigarh, Upinder had remained the Panchkula Mayor from 2013-18. During her tenure, she had carried out several development works and projects in the town.
Addressing the party workers, Ahluwalia said: "We will start from where we left in June 2018. All development works and projects started during our tenure are lying incomplete. After being elected, all incomplete projects will be given consideration on a priority basis".
Talking about the agenda for the elections, Ahluwalia said due to the Covid, health and sanitation would be her priority. Dumping site and landfill would be shifted away from the residential areas. We will set up a stray cattle shelter and check stray dog menace in the city. Uplift of slum areas, increased police patrolling, installation of CCTVs, maintenance and beautification of public parks, old-age homes in villages and shelter homes for the underprivileged and setting up public libraries in community centres and villages will be her other agendas.
