Amarinder launches development projects under Smart City and Amrut schemes worth Rs 1087 cr

Chandigarh, Feb 22 (UNI) Punjab Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh on Monday virtually laid the foundation stones and inaugurated a slew of projects worth Rs 1087 crore for the holistic development of urban areas under the Smart City and AMRUT schemes and urged the union government to include the holy city of Anandpur Sahib under the Smart City scheme, as a tribute to Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur ji on his 400th Prakash Purab.
Thanking the people of the state for their overwhelming support to the Congress party in the recently concluded Civic elections, Capt Amarinder said the mandate is a vindication of the pro-people policies of his government. Pointing out that while the Congress had won 1,410 of the 2,206 wards (64 per cent), he said all the opposition parties had been decimated because of their anti-people and vicious negative agendas.
He lambasted the earlier Akali-BJP regime for ignoring the development of urban areas and expressed confidence that the launch of these projects will drive sustainable progress in these regions.
