Sukhbir Badal to re-inaugurate nine year old project

Amrit Lal Aggarwal, Member of the Ludhiana Aggarwala Co-operative House Building Society, told sources, “Badal ji will inaugurate the project on August 10 at 2.15 pm. He will be coming from Jagraon, then he will inaugurate a project at octroi post. After having lunch at Lodhi Club, he will inaugurate the Aggar Nagar project.”

Delayed project to start again
According to the reports, this project was earlier inaugurated by Badal on June 10, 2001 and the stone lies intact in Aggar Nagar Block- B.

Later, when Congress Party came into power, the project got delayed.

In the year 2009, the society again requested Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) Minister Hira Singh Gabaria to kick off the project, but he refused by saying that the soil content of the area was too soft to handle the pressure of drilling.

Another hurdle that came in its way was the construction of the shops on the subway that will connect the Blocks A and B in Aggar Nagar.

Municipal Corporation (MC) Executive Engineer Brij Pal, the in-charge of the project, said that around twelve shops will be constructed and the complete project will cost Rs 3.84 crore.

Amrit Lal Aggarwal asserted that he has cleared all the problems between the society and MC. He said, “I have confirmed the facts from MC, and as per the final decision, 24 shops will be constructed on the subway path.”

Sukhbir to be welcomed by residents
Meanwhile, members of Aggar Nagar society have already made preparations for grand welcome of the Deputy CM.

A welcome sign board from the society has already been planted near the site where the project will be re-inaugurated. A new display board has been placed on the subway near the old stone.
